Good morning!
This Monday morning, I wanted to share some changes coming to The Minimalist Author Publication so we can reset some expectations and prepare for what the rest of the year has in store.
It isn’t anything wild and crazy. But, I want to share what I am doing and why I am doing it to be transparent and to continue fostering the self-publishing community we have started here on the publication.
So, I want to share the schedule, content, paid subscription changes, and my vision for this publication from now on.
Before we begin, check out this book!
This is a comprehensive guide for entrepreneurs, coaches, consultants, and content creators, offering a blueprint for creating profitable and impactful online courses. The book covers everything from idea inception to course design, technology setup, marketing strategies, and long-term success optimization. With practical strategies and expert insights, it aims to help readers transform their knowledge into a thriving online business.
Schedule
After careful consideration, I will continue to post two to three times a week. However, plan for posts to come out on Mondays, Wednesdays, and sometimes Fridays. This will give me time to create better content for you and bring more profound insights into writing and self-publishing.
Content
It came to my attention that my step-by-step posts are excellent references for people who are “going to try them out” over the next (insert extremely long timeframe). I am grateful that you value my content, and I want to try and apply the content as you go.
However, it almost defeats the purpose of creating the content to apply if you are going to sit on it for months and never actually use it. So, I plan to provide more insights into writing and self-publishing. However, the step-by-step guides will be less frequent.
Paid Subscription Community - Authors Collective
I have always loved hearing the story of the Inklings, a writing group comprised of J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, and others who would sit in a local pub near Oxford University and share what they were working on, things they had learned, and simply network about the writing business.
I have always craved sitting around a pub, talking about what I am working on in a haze of pipe smoke like these men have done. And while there are writers around the town where I live, none quite like me and what I write.
However, I know there are writers here on Substack who would love to belong to a community and talk about their books. So, I am going to create one with the Authors Collective.
Benefit #1: Peer review opportunities. We can share what we are working on for our books to get help with areas where we are stuck and gain valuable insight into what is good in our current work.
Benefit #2: Weekly Q&A Sessions or Ask Me Anything Sessions. One is to help get to know each other better, and two is to help grow our community and improve the quality of our work.
Benefit #3: Access to my Gumroad store at 50% off. I have been doing this with the paid subscription and will continue to honor it.
There will also be weekly paid posts on Tuesdays or Thursdays, which will share news, highlights, or something we have learned about self-publishing that might help the entire community.
The price for the Authors Collective will be $7/month, $70/year, or a Founding Member Price at $150 (which gives you free access to all of my Gumroad products).
