What they say about me

Katie Phillips / Fiction Editor, and Author Coach

Margaret is a life-saver for the overwhelmed authorpreneur! She listened to my ideas, got to know my brand, and swiftly created a plan to organize my schedule, social media, and emails to effectively reach my audience. No more erratic posting, missed deadlines, or last-minute panicking because I forgot a newsletter was due! She’s a jewel, and I love getting to work with her.

Hi, I'm MJ!

I’m Margaret McGriff; you can call me MJ.

I’ve published swashbuckling YA fantasy novels and short stories. I also created professional digital marketing content — including email strategy — for 13+ years.

This course is part of my mission to give back to our awesome community. I combine my experience as an author and digital marketer to help other authors create newsletters that enchant their readers. (And sell more books!)

The in-depth lessons in this course cover everything I discovered about writing newsletters for my email subscribers. You, my fellow author, will learn what it takes to make your newsletters sparkle.
