"WHAT THE BLOG?!"
JEff Walker's Blog
(News-Updates-Information)
Jeff Walker Books is now on substack.com officiallyWith all the latest trends going on, authors posting on various social media sites and the like... the latest one we're all hopping aboard is Substack.com. So, why am I joining that as well? Because as a frustrated self published author, having to be told by a-mer-zon that I can't republish my titles elsewhere without being punished on their read-by-page platform, I think it's time to try something new. I've heard a great deal of writers going onto this newsletter type app and publishing their stories there as a subscription service. That way, the readers can get the book chapter by chapter each month (or however long it takes) as the writer pushes it out. They get instant access to the story, they can read the entire book, make comments to the author, and can get in on the latest new stories or news the author would like to share.
I'm very new to this kind of publishing. I remember there being something similar to a chapter by chapter service a very long time ago. It didn't work, then, but maybe it will work now? Not sure. But, I'm willing to give it a try and see if this is a viable solution to expanding and gaining new readers. One can only hope. My substack site will have my general rants (of course, much like my blog, podcasts, YouTube vids, etc), I'm trying to put up stories on a subscription service as well. It might work, or it might not... but I'd love to get your feedback on that site and on here as well. Do you think this is a good idea or bad idea? Not sure really. But why don't you check it out... head over to https://jeffwalkerbooks.substack.com and give it a shot.
