Connect & Support

As an independent creator in the digital age, I realize there are many ways to connect with readers and to solicit their support directly, so I’m compiling all of mine here. Support from readers comes in many forms, both non-monetary (boosting posts, amplifying message, cheerleading, etc) and monetary! The mechanisms for support are constantly changing and evolving as new tools, websites, and norms come along. Direct support is a key piece of the modern ecosystem for authors people like me, even when I am also publishing work with large publishers. I am grateful for and honored by the support I’ve received.

Newsletter(s)!

Want to get news and stories (and free stuff…) from me in your email box directly? It’s the best way to hear about my upcoming projects and crowdfunded book publications.

I run my newsletter on Mailchimp currently. It comes once a month, and usually includes a personal musing from me, book recommendations, and occasional recipes. Click here to join:
