Seemly

Newsletters for authors

Seemly helps independent authors grow a reader list they own, send beautiful email, and keep their readers' trust. Built for the way authors actually work: reader magnets, group promotions and swaps.

Now onboarding a small group of design-partner authors.

What you get

Grow your list with reader magnets

Offer a free book or sample, collect readers on a page that works on a phone, and confirm every signup by email before they hear from you.

Bring your list with you

Import from Mailchimp, MailerLite or Kit. Every address is recorded with your confirmation that your readers gave permission.

Write like an author, not a marketer

A simple editor with blocks for your books, buttons and magnets. Emails stay small, clean and readable in every inbox.

Protect your reputation

Your own sending domain, one-click unsubscribe, automatic suppression of bounces and complaints, and an automatic pause if something goes wrong.

Seemly only sends to people who asked to hear from an author. Signups use double opt-in, imports require a written confirmation of permission, and every message carries a one-click unsubscribe and the author's postal address. We do not allow purchased, rented or scraped lists.
