New Kris Mystery Novellas
Four of Them to Be Exact… Three are unpublished, one was published in the Holiday Spectacular Calendar and from there ended up winning the Derringer Award. Yes, it is that good. Four brand new short crime novels (novellas) by Kristine Kathryn Rusch. Where can you get them? In our next Kickstarter, that’s where. Still a number of weeks out, but take a look at the header and those covers (and the branding… none of these have the same character or are even slightly related, so take note of the branding.) Four fantastic mystery novellas. Amazing stories and reading. Yes, two weeks before it launches we got a “Project We Love”…

Having a Great Time with Merch…
Drinking Iced Tea Out of My Poker Boy Mug… And I have a Poker Boy hoodie, a Bryant Street hoodie, and a Pulphouse hoodie to wear, plus a Marble Grant mug. Why am I even mentioning this? Well, after 50 years since I sold my first short story, this is the first time I have ever had any merchandise with my own characters and worlds and brands on it. And what have I discovered? Makes me want to write more. Not kidding. Just having this brand stuff and merch as a possibility, let alone being able to actually have the stuff, really has me energized to do more. And create…

Negative Habits
Habits of Not Writing… Or not publishing what you write. Over the years I have talked a lot in classes and here about how it really helps to form positive habits on writing. Start a streak, do a challenge, write at the same time each day, and so on. And with the publishing coming in, I have often suggested a publishing day each week set aside only for publishing. Form a habit. But what I have noticed in myself and others lately is not writing, not publishing, is habit-forming as well. Streaks, challenges, and so on to help form positive habits are powerful, but so are the habits of not…

Dialog from 1 to 10 Characters
I Left Out the Word “From” Yesterday And with Teachable’s really sucky search function, turns out the class was difficult to find. It is on the first page, about 8 down. Here is yesterday’s post on this great class that starts Monday. This Great Class Starts Monday. Taught by Kris for six weeks. No assignments, just lots of learning about how to do more than two characters in a conversation and keep the readers clear on who is talking and where they are at. Starts Monday on Teachable.

Great Fun With Writers Visiting…
Wonderful Meals and Conversations… With great writers and friends. I know we live in a great world of communication where we can keep in touch with so many friends. But just nothing like sitting and talking face-to-face. Talking about writing, publishing, cats, and just about everything. I’ve been lucky enough to be able to do that for the last three days with different friends in town. And yes, our two cats manning promotion central are great. So a large writer’s lunch here today (Friday) that will have more writing skill and published novels and awards than can be imagined around one table. So, so much fun. I remember as a…
