Business Master Class Finishing Up

October 22, 2016 /

Business Master Class Finishing Up

Here on the coast we are just tomorrow finishing up the really fun business master class. Forty professional fiction writers, all in one meeting room, talking nothing but business morning, afternoon, and night, and into the night, actually.

Great fun. Exhausted but I have a long list of things I want to do.

So tomorrow night it will be done and things will be back to normal here on Sunday. And I will start making some of the changes to this site at that point.

Kickstarter Update: We have finally figured out a few tricks on the surveys we send out to supporters to give information, so those will be going out tomorrow (Sunday) or Monday. Also, those of you who supported with getting a workshop will be able to take the November workshops just fine. No worries.

Sorry for the confusion on the first few surveys that went out. Sort of a learning process on those. (grin)

    Sigh.

    I really wish I could figure out how to get there for one of these. I’m paranoid that the one time I can finally make it is the year you decide to retire it.
