What a great list! Thank you for including me, Dana. And you know that newsletter you like? Well, a great big thank you along with a link to this blog will go in it this coming issue.
BTW, I take most of those letters myself and will look into some of the others.
Best,

Dana- I am so honored to be a part of this list. I'll be sharing it with all the Book Bites readers tomorrow.
Thanks for preparing this great list. I discovered a few old friends and some new gems here myself.
With appreciation,

Hi, Dana, this is a great list--I've been reading most of these for a long time.
One to add is my own Monthly Book Marketing Tips: http://frugalmarketing.com/newsletters/category/book-marketing/
As the author of Grassroots Marketing for Authors and Publishers, I'd be remiss if I didn't have my own book marketing newsletter, wouldn't I? :-)

Thank you, Dana for this super list! I knew of some these, but some were new. I'm always eager to glean more information so I appreciate this list. I learned about your from John Kremer's newsletter. :)
