Substack
Substack lets writers connect with their audience on their own terms
 and earn money doing it. We make it simple for writers to publish to
an email list that they own, get discovered on the web, and charge
for subscriptions.

More than 500,000 people pay to subscribe to writers across the
Substack network, and the top writers make millions of dollars a
year. Substack's model depends on the success of writers using
Substack - we only make money when they do.

"Substack makes it dead simple to start a newsletter and get paid for
it." - Judd Legum, author of Popular Information

"Substack gives me a way to connect with my audience on my own
terms." - Lyz Lenz, author of God Land and Men Yell At Me
