Earlier this month, I mentioned that I’d made myself a printable reading journal. It’s been great for keeping track of what’s on my shelf and writing down quick thoughts on the things I’ve read. I thought others might like it, but while I’ve played with the idea of selling printable journals and planners, it didn’t feel right for this one.
Instead, the journal becomes the kickoff for a special archive I’ve been putting together for my newsletter subscribers, and it’s the first of several goodies that are already on the page. It turned out pretty nicely, too, if I do say so myself! It’s optimized for printing on an 8.5×5.5 page, so half a standard piece of printer paper.
So that’s the first thing that went up on the page, and once I had it up, thinking of all the other things I can add to the special bonus content archive made me excited. Throughout the coming year, I plan to add goodies like printable bookmarks, book-themed stickers, and phone wallpapers.
It’s also a perfect place to create a full list of the novellas and short stories newsletter subscribers can download for free, so they can be easily accessed at any time. Right now, the list includes A Clean Getaway and The City of Arches, two companion stories for the Snakesblood Saga, as well as The Choosing, a short story prequel to Spectrum Legacy.
But now that my paranormal romance stories are no longer available for sale, newsletter readers have the chance to get those, too! Both After Undeath books (Death of the Sun and Born of the Moon), two Keeper’s Kin novellas (Keeper’s Finder and The First Hunt), and all three Keeper’s Kin novels (Her Midnight Cowboy, Her Midnight Wedding, and Her Midnight Hunter) are available as part of the archive.
I’ll be sending the link to the archive and the password that goes with it to newsletter subscribers later this week, so you have time to sign up! And if you’re already signed up, you’ll be getting that email soon.
Why newsletter subscribers and not blog readers?
The newsletter is separate from blog updates. It only goes out once a month, so it’s less overwhelming for some readers than receiving weekly or bi-weekly updates whenever I post something here. The newsletter is also where I share sneak previews of cover art, first looks at short stories, and share notifications whenever my books go on sale. That sort of thing is more time-sensitive, after all! By sharing the archive of goodies with newsletter subscribers, it gives me an easy way to keep track of all the extras I’ve offered them over the years and ensure that new subscribers have a chance to get them, too. Just a special thanks for being there through all my writing adventures.
Visit the newsletter sign-up page and you’ll get an extra novella when you join, too–Of Blood and Rain is a stand-alone fantasy adventure and will be sent to you right away, and then the password for the bonus archive will be coming soon–along with a convenient link and a reminder of the password every month, so none of your perks get lost.
Happy reading!
