Blog and broadcasts

Publish articles and email your readers.
Cancel Substack. Stop renting your audience.

Articles, author spotlights, and email broadcasts to a list that belongs to you. Same readers, same reach, zero monthly toll to a platform that owns the relationship.

How it works
1
01

Write a post

Publish articles, news, and author interviews to your site with the same editor you use everywhere else.

2
02

Grow your own list

Readers subscribe on your storefront. The email addresses are yours, exportable, forever.

3
03

Broadcast to everyone

Send a new-release announcement or a digest to your whole list in a few clicks. No per-subscriber surcharge.

Where it shines

The press paying a 10% audience tax

You built the readership. Stop handing a platform a cut just to keep talking to it.

Author spotlights

Run an interview the week a book launches and link straight to the buy button.

New-release announcements

Email 4,000 readers the day a title goes live, from your domain, with your name in the inbox.

A blog that actually sells books

Every post sits one click from your catalog, not stranded on a platform that links to nothing.

Pricing

Pay for Blog & Email, nothing else.

No suite, no bundle, no cut of your sales. Turn this tool on by itself and switch it off any time.

Email broadcasts to your list

Flat. No per-subscriber pricing that punishes you for growing your list.

If you don’t own the list, you don’t own the audience.

Substack and the rest feel free until you read the fine print. They keep a cut, they hold the subscriber relationship, and the day they change the rules, your audience is on their side of the wall, not yours.

An email list you own is the single most valuable asset a press has. It’s the one channel no algorithm can throttle and no platform can tax. Build it on ground you own and every launch starts with readers already raising their hands.

Frequently asked

Can I move my existing Substack list over?

Yes. Import your subscribers and pick up where you left off, minus the platform cut.

Does the blog connect to my store?

Yes. Every post and broadcast can link straight to a book’s checkout, so your writing actually moves copies.

What does it cost?

$5/mo. No per-subscriber pricing that punishes you for growing your list.

Are the emails actually mine?

Yes. Your subscriber list is yours, exportable any time. We don’t gate your own audience behind us.

Own the list. Own the audience.

Publish, broadcast, and grow a readership no platform gets to tax.
