Welcome to the email archive – where I store all the most useful emails from my weekly marketing newsletter. I’ve grouped them into various topic areas so you can dive into the subjects of most interest to you.

• This Writing Life
• Mad Ads
• Reader Targeting
• Launch Menu
• Email Sorcery
• How To Sell Books

For the moment, the links all go to an archive at Mailchimp, but as I’m transitioning away from them, I will import the content here so it has a more permanent home.

Oh, and if you stumbled across this private, subscriber-only section of my site, then sign up to my newsletter here to make sure you get future emails.
