Hello!

I'm researching how authors use their websites and email lists. Would love to learn how authors on Fastlane are building up their email lists? How's it going?

I'm mostly interested about Fiction authors as it's way easier to build up non-fiction email list. :)

If you could share your stories, that would be great!

Cheers,
Gymjunkie
