Hey friends 💛
Quick note: I’m sorry this week’s video didn’t drop on Wednesday as planned. I’ve been fighting off a cold, and things have felt a little tense here in MN, so I needed a moment to regroup.
The good news? The next class goes live today at 3:03pm CT.
Find it here: https://youtu.be/zS4Kv9VYa6o
We’ll be right back to our regular Wednesday drops after this one. Thanks for your patience, your kindness, and for being here. 💜

👀 AI-curious, but not sure how to actually use it in your author life?
For the first time ever, I just made my GPT Genius masterclass free to watch on YouTube: it’s a full class on how to build your own Custom GPT in ChatGPT, specifically for indie authors.
We cover:
• How to train a Custom GPT to understand your genre + voice
• Using AI to brainstorm, plot, and worldbuild without losing your style
• Ways to streamline your author workflow (draft → edits → beyond)
If you’ve wanted AI to feel like a co-creator, not a replacement, start here. 💜
👉 Watch the full class!
P.S. If you already bought GPT Genius through Author Revolution, this is your replay—your toolkit + prompts are still in your inbox from your original purchase. 🧠✨

✨ Authors, let’s talk about the goldmine you’re ignoring… your backlist.
For nearly a decade, the indie author space has been obsessed with rapid release—publish fast, publish often, never stop producing. But here’s the truth: your backlist is not expired milk. It doesn’t have an expiration date.
Just ask Taylor Swift. She’s turned re-releases, vault tracks, and clever Easter eggs into a billion-dollar empire. And if she can make a 13-year-old song a cultural moment, we can absolutely breathe new life into our books.
That’s why this month’s masterclass is Backlist to Bank: Monetize Your Books with ChatGPT.
📅 Live on Friday, August 22 at 1PM CT
👉 www.authorrevolution.org/offers/2ziAQFXP/checkout
You’ll walk away with a repeatable system to spotlight your backlist year-round and keep sales flowing—without burning out.
Your books deserve a comeback tour. Let’s make it happen. 🎤📚
