On the homepage for my newsletter, my pinned post declares this to be the place for “Advice and Community for ALL authors.”
A nice catch phrase but I had a bit of a revelation this weekend as I was making updates to all my websites… It’s a little hard to provide advice and community to ALL authors if my free posts get locked down after a month.
What if the post that would be most helpful to you is two months old and you’re not ready to go premium yet? Kind of a bait and switch, right?
The entire backlog (minus premium posts) are now available to ALL
The premium tier still exists, of course and it will remain as it always was. You get the more tactical side of book launching, marketing, and writing advice, or it can just be to support what I’m doing here. Plus you are able to start new chat threads and DM me on Substack.
But Premium is no longer required to read older posts.
You want to read about the best years of my life? You can!
You want a breakdown of a psychopath vs regular villain? I’ve got you covered!
Or maybe you want an analysis of the best slow-burn horror movie I’ve ever seen. It’s all here.
You can scroll through it all and the posts also show up on search engines, which is an added benefit.
Feel free to comment on the older ones too. I get notified just the same, so nothing gets buried.
And just for fun…
I added a small line of merch
I shut down my Shopify store this week (a play-by-play of why will be in March’s premium post), so I decided some writerly tees, hoodies, and coffee delivery devices were in order :)
