Kickstarter Friday
Some Fiction Campaigns That Are Worth Studying and Backing… I do this every Friday when I have a few campaigns I think are worth putting here. I will not say much negative about a campaign. If there is too much or it is going to fail, I won’t post it here. And for those wondering where I get off judging Kickstarter Campaigns by fiction writers, I have now done 56 of them, every one funded and made money. My first campaign was in the very early days of Kickstarter. But if yoyu are going to study campaigns that I have done, study the last year or so. I am continuing…

Personal Sales Help Mentorship
Two Spots Still Open… I still have room for two more writers. And you can start now or next year, either is fine. Here is why I am going to do this. To put it bluntly, many writers are simply creating stories that won’t sell for one reason or another, often having nothing to do with craft. Sometimes learning this stuff early helps before you get to twenty or more major titles published, but often a writer gets to that discoverability threshold of 20 books and still does not see an increase in sales. That means something is off in the product. (At that point, the story is a product.)…

Last Day for Fey Kickstarter!!!
Don’t Miss This Book and Two Workshops!! The new Fey novel campaign ends Thursday at 7 pm West Coast time. Last Day!!! Counting down the hours… And wow does this have two great special workshops with it. The first one (which does not seem to be exciting too many, but excites me and Kris) is CREATING FANTASY MERCH WORLDS, meaning building a bunch of merchandise around your book or books or you. They can be fantasy or sf or mystery or romance. It all applies. For example, just on my store alone, (www.deanwesleysmithstore.com) which is still being built out, I have a bunch merch with Marble Grant and Poker Boy. …

Aces Win It All…
From an Ugly Start… Aces were mostly counted out of even making the playoffs this year and then the Lynx came into town and blew the Aces off their own home floor by 53 points. Ugly does not begin to describe that. And in the middle of this disaster, something really fun happened at halftime. There was a baby crawl race and halfway down the floor the baby said, “Hell with it.” and stood up and took her first steps in front of 14,000 cheering people. The crowd, already beat up, finally had something to cheer for. Video attached. Watch the faces on the crowd as the baby did what…
