Why are more and more authors using Cross Promotion and Newsletter Swaps to promote their books? As an author who has grown a mailing list super-fast with cross promotions, I've broken down this complex yet simple enough process into the nuts and bolts so anyone new to this concept can see how joint author cross promotions work.
