I agree though they have to be your fans. I have a list of 5000 most of whom were acquired during a contest to gather emails to send newsletters. They were readers of a particular genre and when I sent out the first newsletter about my newest release in that genre I didn't have a any more buys than normal with a new release. I did gather reviewers who came through with reviews.

They are usually once a month because I try to have something happening in my writing career every month.

I check what's happening with my fellow writers on their blogs, Facebook, twitter, yahoo groups, and other social media sites. It gets overwhelming at times. I would like to know how much a newsletter leads to real sales.

On occasion if they have a sale or a new book they will post another. I like when authors tells a little bit about there life, recipes, me books. I really enjoy seeing a glimpse of your ranch life.

That means it's not once a month and it is only about the new book. <br /><br />As a reader, I do not sign up for any newsletters to avoid email overload. I doubt I'd read one if it came in and that's unfair to the writers to sign up for what I don't have time. I do though often check links when they are on Facebook or a blog but that's not in my mail.
