Writing, selling, and marketing your book idea starts with an author newsletter on Substack you own. In three recorded classes, we'll help you build a Substack full of real readers who can't wait for your next chapter — thanks to our no-nonsense, straightforward, proven method. Start the moment you join, and go at your own pace. You're wildly capable of this. And we'll be right beside you.
For fiction & non-fiction authors done with rented land to finally be seen
If you're a writer (or want to be one) and the idea that you might one day write a bestselling book has crossed your mind — well, good news! This summer we'll bring you soooo much clarity and help turn your book dream into a reality. Because we know firsthand, and from helping hundreds of authors: one author publication on Substack can change the whole game for you.
Here's the truth: writing on Substack grows your reach, drives your book sales, and introduces new subscribers to what you have to share with the world — so they can become your readers later. Substack is the beginning of writing and selling your book.
Substack's team says:
Even publishers are telling their authors:
Nodding along? You're not alone.
When we wrote our first book and published our first Substack post, we had no idea what we were doing — no email list, no literary background. But we had stories we had to tell, so we made a plan and let inspiration lead the way.
Today, we've unlocked the key to book-writing success: Kristina is a bestselling Substack author (international Top 14) writing her first book thanks to her Substack visibility, and together with indie author Fleur has helped 200+ authors get their books in front of new readers. And in this Bootcamp, we're going to teach you all about it.
It's going to be a party!
2 authors who built real readerships — teaching you to do the same.
I'm an Amazon best-selling author, built a $2M+ career from words, and am the founder of The Substack Bookstore. With 25+ years in writing and marketing, I've helped 200+ authors turn their books into a platform and turn readers into buyers.

I'm an award-winning marketing and brand manager, a Top 14 #International Substack bestseller, and the founder of the Online Writing Club. Part-time with two kids in the house, I grew a newsletter read by 18,000+ writers and have taught thousands how to build, grow, and monetize on Substack — the exact playbook I'll bring to your author platform. Writing on Substack landed me a book deal beyond my wildest dreams: I got a book deal! I'm writing my first book with a publisher — giving birth to my book baby in spring 2027.

Each class is a 90-minute masterclass + Q&A — and because we tend to overdeliver, one runs up to 120 minutes. Start the minute you join, rewatch whenever you need it, and keep it for every book you write from here on.
You'll walk away empowered, totally clear, and ready to take action on your next Substack steps — not worn out and frustrated by vague advice or poorly veiled sales tactics. Because it's a LOT easier to write a book with advice from someone who's gone before you.
You've got nothing to lose — and that blank page will feel a lot less scary.
"The best decision of my life was to put pen to page. I went from writing on the internet to a book deal beyond my wildest dreams — my first book publishes in 2027."
— Kristina God, bestselling Substack author
So this time next year, you won't still be saying "someday I'll write a book." Cheering you on!
Real comments from authors in Kristina & Fleur's community.
Walter RheinAuthor, Medium Top Writer & Substack Bestseller“Kristina is an expert on marketing and improving your visibility. I went from zero to 10,000+ subscribers within 16 months. Her advice is easy to implement and actually works. Joining her community, using Notes more and collaborating with her has made a big difference.”
Betina CuñadoLawyer · Bioethicist · Brand Strategist“From day one, the Bootcamp was hands-on, dynamic, and super engaging. Open mics, real-time questions, actual support.

“It's a fantastic way to engage with other authors, dig into the details about what it takes to build community, and focus on real ways to craft an impactful story online. I connected more deeply with dozens of new readers in comments, chat, and during a subsequent Substack Live to talk about what it takes to become a published author. Incredibly glad I jumped onboard.”

Substack does the work of four tools — which is exactly why it's confusing.
Publish essays, chapters, and serialized fiction on a page that's yours.
Every post lands in your readers' inbox. No algorithm deciding who sees it.
Notes and recommendations surface your work to readers already looking for it.
Paid subscriptions and book sales, built in. One click for the reader.
We'll be honest: Substack is powerful, but piecing it together alone as an (indie) author is tedious. That's why most quit in week #14 to #16. There are a hundred small decisions that quietly decide whether readers stay. We'll ease the overwhelm and make building an author newsletter a joy. That's the whole point of this Bootcamp — so you skip the guesswork and the year of trial and error.
Here's the truth nobody tells authors: the platforms you've been hustling on were never yours.
You stop renting an audience and start owning one — readers who are yours, forever.
People say this all the time. But that's not how the indie space actually works — here's why:
of self-published authors will sell fewer than 100 copies of their book. Ever. Because nobody helped them get found.
Traditional publishing has publicists, marketing budgets, bookshop placements, and review relationships. Indie authors have a link and a hope.
The Substack Bookstore exists to close that gap. One reader, one book, one discovery at a time.
— Fleur HullMost readers only see what platforms push to them. Thousands of great indie books never reach the right audience.
Traditional publishers spend heavily on marketing. Most indie authors are funding everything themselves.
A book can be excellent and still get buried under millions of other titles online.
Many indie books grow slowly through readers recommending them — not instant viral moments.
Writer, marketer, editor, and publisher — all at once. Visibility takes much longer when one person is doing everything.
Once a book gains traction it spreads fast — but getting that first momentum is the hardest part.
That's exactly why I created The Substack Bookstore — to help indie authors get their books in front of new readers through Substack content and community. If you're an indie author looking for more visibility: this is your time!
— Fleur Hull, founder of The Substack BookstoreBuilt for authors who want readers and book sales — not just another newsletter.

P.S. Still reading? Consider this your loving kick in the pants. Your book has waited long enough — and so have you. Start today.
You can start right now. This is the complete Bootcamp, recorded — the moment you join, all three classes and every bonus are in your account. No waiting for the next round, no time zones to work around, no sessions to miss. Watch it in a weekend or one class a week; the pace is entirely yours, and it stays yours for life.
Each class is a 90-minute masterclass plus Q&A — the teaching, then real author questions answered on screen. Because we tend to overdeliver, one of the three runs up to 120 minutes. You can pause, rewind, and rewatch any part as often as you like.
Build a publication you own — and set it up in the right order. Most authors set their Substack up backwards and spend a year wondering why nobody sticks around. Class 1 fixes the order, then gets clear on what you're actually here to say.
You'll finish with: a publication name, a tagline, and a first-draft About page — done as you watch.
Plus 30 minutes of recorded Q&A, opening with live feedback on real authors' About pages.
Find your first true readers — using Notes, your backlist, and other authors. You don't need ads and you don't need a big list. You need a visibility habit and a handful of authors who send readers your way. Class 2 builds both.
You'll finish with: three cross-promo asks ready to send before you start Class 3.
Plus 30 minutes of recorded Q&A, with feedback on real Notes drafts and outreach messages.
Your Amazon page, your links, and your launch playbook. This is the day the pieces connect. Your Substack and your Amazon listing are two separate things until you wire them together — and most authors never do. We'll do it on screen, in real accounts, so you can follow along in yours.
You'll finish with: your categories and keywords chosen, your buy link live, and a launch date on the calendar.
Plus 30 minutes of recorded Q&A — real book descriptions and Amazon pages, fixed on screen.
A blank page is intimidating — and knowing page zero has to become page 300 keeps a lot of writers from ever starting (or finishing). Substack changes that: you write chapter by chapter, serialize your novel, test your ideas, and attract readers with your stories while you write. Your book grows in public, with an audience already waiting for it.
Well, we can't do the writing for you — but if you're interested in the path to your first book, or just getting started with writing chapters, serializing your novel, or attracting readers through your stories on Substack: get ready to find out allllll of our insights, so you can begin today… and keep going every day after that until you're done.
Whether book writing has been on your mind for a while or you're not sure it's the path you want to take — this Bootcamp is the pathway to help you take the leap and put pen to paper. Even if it's just a short post on Substack Notes right now.
You've been through some things — and we know you have stories to tell. Putting that knowledge into a Substack publication (and later, a book) and out into the world is a great way to do exactly that.
Right about the time you're ready to tell your stories, imposter syndrome sets in. It happened to Kristina too. Her writing process hasn't been all rainbows and butterflies: she's doubted herself, cried, avoided her computer, and wanted to delete the entire manuscript. Book writing is a journey — and you don't have to walk it alone.
Skip the waiting game. Get the support you need to turn your knowledge and your big A-HA idea into a publication — and into book form — sooner rather than later. It's the right time. Trust us, and yourself, just a little bit more than you don't. The confidence comes with the writing.
Kristina says: "I met Fleur back in summer 2025 and honestly, when I had her on the phone, I gushed a little bit. Ok, a lot. Fleur is the real deal — she says it like it is, she doesn't hold back, and she's honest and true to her word. I feel super supported every time I talk and work with her."
Fleur says: "When you want to become an expert at something, you study the experts. I had no idea what I was doing when I got started on Substack — so I got to experience Kristina's magic personally. Weeks later, I became a bestseller myself, and after one year of publishing I have more than 150 paid subscribers. Join us, and experience the same magic I did."

“I'm looking to learn more about Substack and you seem to be a good teacher. Looking forward to learning from you, Kristina.”
“I've subscribed to the Paid - Online Writing Club of Kristina God because if someone knows Substack's 'ins' and 'outs' Kristina is that person! Her masterclasses are a must watch, her digital marketing and writing knowledge -> is super valuable! This was a no brainer. Did I mention she is award winning marketing manager, while juggling 2 kids, and ranks #25 on Substack?”
“Hello Kristina, I just launched a new publication and I believe your writing will help me start with the right structures in place.”

“I've made millions online and have years of experience, but I always try to maintain a beginners mind and learn from people who are the best at what what they do. When it comes to Substack I trust Kristina more than anyone else. The amount of dedication, effort, and research she puts into this publication is mind-blowing. Wouldn't trust anyone else for guidance on Substack than her!”
“I like all the advantages of being a part of her Online Writing Club… can't wait to find out which headline get more people to open emails.”
“I admire your drive and style. I hope to learn a lot from you and apply everything to my writing.”

“Your youtube was convincing!”
“I grew up with the message that hyping oneself was akin to blasphemy (ok, so a little hyperbole there, but you get the point). I've written a great memoir (yes, I'm choking on writing the word 'great,' but it helps that readers have described the book as that) — however, I feel unmoored when it comes to pronouncing and announcing my book worthy of reading and recommending. So, here goes!”

I've heard and read a lot of good things about you, and I really could use some help with my Substack, so here I am! I really appreciate all the help you give people. Like me, a lot of Medium people are feeling a bit lost right now. I'm glad to know you.”
