You’ve built a Substack. You’ve written a book. But how do you connect the dots—and actually get your readers to buy it?

On Tuesday, July 8, at 12 p.m. ET, Author Insider will be hosting a live workshop with Sarah Fay, creator of

Substack Writers at Work with Sarah Fay
and author of Pathological: The True Story of Six Misdiagnoses.

Sarah has developed a step-by-step method for using your Substack as a powerful book marketing engine—and she’ll walk us through exactly how it works.

We’ll cover:

  • How to prime your audience to want your book

  • What kinds of posts convert readers into buyers

  • The key messaging shift that made all the difference for Sarah

  • How to balance promotion with authenticity (and not feel gross about it)

  • Mistakes to avoid, and tactics that actually work

Whether your book is coming out soon or has already launched, this session will give you a clear roadmap for making Substack a meaningful part of your marketing plan.
