I Want My Hour Back…
I Write Late At Night… Suddenly, even though I knew it was coming, I lost an hour of writing time. Just poof!! Gone. But still managed to get a lot done today. Everyone who was interested in my coaching on the publishing side I got back to. (Still two spots open… write me.) The workshops on those areas are for the moment on hold. Just could not get them worked out the way I wanted. They were going to be on three areas. (Same areas the coaching is in…) From manuscript to book laid out and published around the world in electronic and paper. From publishing through building a publishing…

A Question About My Challenge…
“Am I Running Out of Ideas?” That was the question and it is a good question if you believe in all the myths of fiction writing, as we all do and did in our early days. For me, just to be clear… I never write down ideas. I mostly just ignore them. I never know what I am going to write ahead of time. I sometimes don’t know until the end of the story. I finish all stories I start. I use a trigger like a title of a phrase or image of a character to start my stories. I write stories only for myself and no one else. And…

Kickstarter Firing Up At Noon!
IF YOU LOVE FANTASY NOVELS… That is the Kickstarter for you. Three epic fantasy novels written by Kristine Kathryn Rusch. Brand new editions of THE WHITE MISTS OF POWER, HEART READERS, and TRAITORS. All three books stand alone and are fantastic epic fantasy, so in bringing them forward into the light, Kris felt they all belonged together, so we branded them together. Turned out fantastic. And we hark back to the past just a bit. THE WHITE MISTS OF POWER was put out a few months ahead of the mass market edition in a limited slipcased hardback, numbered and signed by Kris. She is willing to part with just five…

3 EPIC FANTASY NOVELS…
WRITTEN BY KRISTINE KATHRYN RUSCH… That is the Kickstarter we have starting tomorrow. Brand new editions of THE WHITE MISTS OF POWER, HEART READERS, and TRAITORS. All three books stand alone and are fantastic epic fantasy, so in bringing them forward into the light, Kris felt they all belonged together, so we branded them together. Turned out fantastic. And the two special writing workshops in this one are great. One is HOW TO REVIVE GREAT OLDER NOVELS AND STORIES. I noticed as we were working on this project, there were a bunch of steps to bringing a book out of the dark. So we thought we would show all of…

CHALLENGE UPDATE…
For January and February… REPORTING February 28th, 2025 Total is from January 1st to February 28th… 189.680 words. 54 Stories, 5 Novel Starts so far. (I count the novel starts as a story in my story per day challenge.) Averaging about 3,215 words per day. That is close to Pulp 2 speed. February turned out to be a rough month in a number of places and lack of time. March is feeling like it will be better. I had no novel starts in February until the last eight days. Then I had two Thunder Mountain novel starts and a Cold Poker Gang novel start. Nature of the challenge, but annoying…

Kris Post On Facebook…
From Her Perspective on the Rock ‘n Roll Half Marathon… As anything Kris does, really clearly written and fun to read, even if I was one of those stragglers managing to get to food. The real challenge of that run wasn’t the 13 miles because that was all in the middle of the street. The real challenge was going that far and then having to go another three miles through and around and up stairs and down stairs in and out of six or seven casinos and hotels. (First time I ever set foot in the Waldorf…) I kept being short with Kris every time she called me because I…
