New Release Club

The New Release Club is an exclusive benefit for paid subscribers.

As its name suggests, paid subscribers receive a free ebook for each new release during the time they are subscribed. New subscribers are also entitled to whatever the most recent previous release was.

I’m not the world’s fastest writer, so there probably won’t be more than one or two a year. But given the discounted nature of my subscriptions, you’d still get most of your subscription costs back in ebooks.

It’s also possible that writing so much for Substack will increase my new release rate. I can see short story anthologies in my future…

You can redeem your free books in a couple of ways:

  • as Amazon gifts (which works for US subscribers or others willing to redeem through the US store)

  • as EPUB or PDF files emailed directly to you or distributed through BookFunnel, depending on circumstances and your preferences.

If the new release happens to be book 2 or greater in a series, you can opt to receive an earlier series book instead. (It doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to get a free Book 9 when you don’t have Book 1.) Since some of you will be people who already own some of my books, you may also decide to substitute a completely different book.

That’s all there is to it. When you first sign up as a paid subscriber, and for each subsequent new release, all you have to do is fill out your preferences on this form.

If you aren’t a paid subscriber yet, but the idea of those free books is sending tingles down your spine, all you have to do is subscribe or update your free subscription to paid.
