Newsletter swaps

I’m always happy to take part in newsletter swaps with other writers. Both my non-fiction (Cops and Writers) and my Brew City Blues series, which I co-author with Michael Anderle.

If you’d like to swap newsletter slots with me, I publish my newsletter once a month, with a repeat send to those that didn’t open the first time, around the 21st of the month. I currently have around 2000 subscribers, and am actively building up my newsletter. My open rate is around 40%, with a 12% clickthrough on average. I have two slots per month, and will get back to you (or my VA will) to confirm which monthly newsletter you will appear in.

Fill in this form, and we’ll also give you the code or information you need to share the book which best matches your needs – either the Cops and Writers series, or Field Training, from Brew City Blues.

This form will only allow you to book up to the end of the year. Please only submit a request once every six months, to give everyone a chance to exchange – if accepted, we’ll email you my blurb, book cover and links.
