Introducing Mixed Messages Extra
I’m launching new perks for Mixed Messages subscribers
Hi, welcome back to Mixed Messages! This week, I’m excited to expand the newsletter and introduce something I’ve been working on for a while – new perks for paid subscribers!
From this week, paid subscribers will get access to exciting new content, including:
Giveaways from past, present and future guests, including Nicola Dinan, Sophie Williams and Katy Massey
Book extracts from the likes of Sophie Williams and exclusive snippets from Mixed Messages guests and mixed creatives
Details of mixed events and screenings happening around the country
Mixed Media – a frequently updated list of books, films, TV shows, podcasts, artwork, platforms and all things related to mixedness
And more!
Weekly interviews with our incredible guests will remain free, dropping each Monday morning, and our annual anniversary giveaway will remain open to everyone. But if you’re ready to win and for more Mixed Messages, upgrade to a paid subscription here:
Have something to promote? Whether it’s a new book, a mixed community meet-up, a film screening or a call for survey responses on mixed identity, let me know here.
This week marks the start of me being a freelance journalist full-time. I’m excited for this next step and to spend even more time on Mixed Messages, making it bigger, better and broader than ever. Extracts and giveaways are live from now, while our events round-up and Mixed Media section are coming very soon.
Remember, you can shop the Mixed Messages Bookshop page here, and the Mixed Messages Amazon Storefront here – these will remain open for all subscribers.
Your support means that I can continue to keep weekly interviews free, as well as bringing you this new content and planning for the future of Mixed Messages.
Come back tomorrow for our usual interview with Waterloo Road actor Tillie Amartey
Enjoy Mixed Messages? Support me on Ko-Fi! Your donations, which can start from £3, help me pay for the transcription software needed to keep this newsletter weekly, as well as special treats for subscribers. I also earn a small amount of commission (at no extra cost to you) on any purchases made through my Bookshop.org and Amazon affiliate links, where you can shop books, music and more by mixed creators.
Mixed Messages is a weekly exploration of the mixed-race experience, from me, Isabella Silvers. My mom is Punjabi (by way of East Africa) and my dad is white British, but finding my place between these two cultures hasn’t always been easy. That’s why I started Mixed Messages, where each week I’ll speak to a prominent mixed voice to delve into what it really feels like to be mixed.
