Okay obviously I want to read all these books. I have thought about Substack-publishing a novel of mine that didn’t sell but here’s what stopped me — I would want people to be able to opt in at any point and get the thing one email at a time from the beginning (like one of those on-demand online courses) and as far as I can tell, Substack doesn’t have that feature. I don’t like that most people would “buy” it and not have the serialized experience but would rather have to go back and read old posts to get it in the right order. If that doesn’t matter to you then I say go for it!!!
This is so interesting! I never thought of this, so thank you! I’m not thinking I would sell it at all, but you’re right if someone becomes a subscriber in Week 10, there’s a lot of scrolling back to begin. Maybe I should be thinking about this differently re money and delivery.
Or not! Let people figure it out! Could even make it a part of the idea of it — you join at any point, everyone gets a different story depending on when they joined and whether they go back to the beginning, people can read out of order, etc.!
Do it! Do it! Do it!
Getting there!

Lots to think about! Looking forward to your reading next week!
Roseland! Roseland! Roseland! Roseland!
It has kinda a hole in the middle but I know how you feel about it 🩷💜🥰
I'd love to read any of these on Substack.
Thank you dear Katherine!
I will happily read any of the three on substack.
Which one would be the most fun for you to publish this way?
And I think your pros list is way stronger than your cons list.
Definitely. I wondered about that lol.
This is a good question. I need to think about it.
You’re the best Jeanne. I truly appreciate you 🩷🩷🩷
