First Run of the Year…
Yes, Kris Beat Me… I got up over five hours ahead of when I normally get up, so that was fun (not). But this year the temperature was perfect. And we were joined by Ron and Lisa Collins and Bridget Collins. And I did more running than I expected to do after my failed summer of getting in shape. I managed about a quarter of a mile straight running, then ran a block and walked a block. I got a distance ahead of Kris, but she caught me just after the two mile mark. I ran another block and got back ahead of her, then she caught me for good…

First Run In 7 Hours…
The First 5K Run of the Season… So I will be getting up five hours ahead of my normal time. Talk about jet lag. Yikes. This run, the Vegas Strong 5K, starts down on Fremont Street, goes up and down Las Vegas Blvd in the downtown area. A couple thousand people run it in honor of the horrid shooting here on October 1st 6 years ago. This is the run I was aiming at starting back in June. I watched my calories and tried to increase milage, all without success. I lost no weight at all and I am not in good shape because of foot injuries and just flat…

New Halloween Story Bundle
This Just Launched!!! And this new bundle is a great one, curated by Kris. And with great writers in it. I would grab this one quick at Storybundle.com. Here is Kris’s full blog she wrote about it, explaining the books and writers in it. THE HALLOWEEN BUNDLE Curated by Kristine Kathryn Rusch I love Halloween. I like it much more than the winter holidays, including Christmas and New Year’s, even though I edit annual winter holiday projects. If I’m going to buy holiday merchandise, I’ll get Halloween merchandise. I love a good Halloween short story too. Because scary stuff is fun. Unless it’s real life scary stuff. The people of…

The Everything Lifetime Subscription…
A Ton of Classes and Workshops… I got answering a question about what exactly was in the Everything Lifetime Subscription and ended up stunning myself as I wrote it all out. All of this is on WMG Teachable and half price this week. Wow, over the years as Kris and I worked to entertain ourselves, keep learning, and at the same time teach what we wish someone had told us, this offering of classes got very large. And seemingly getting bigger as we go. Well over 300 classes and workshops of different types and just about every topic of fiction writing and the business of fiction writing. So let me…

Quick Post On AI Lawsuit
Has To Be Quick Since Aces Game Early Tomorrow… For those of you who do not watch any news at all, this last week most of the remaining bestselling traditional writers and the Author’s Guild filed a lawsuit to stop the theft of their work by ChapGPT. I am not a lawyer, but reading the complaint is very clear and powerful. Lots and lots of artists are already filing suits against AI art companies. And this big suit by old bestsellers is just a part of the massive wave of lawsuits for copyright infringement that have already been filed and will be filed. Simply put… AI in art and in…

Wow!! What a Store!!
WMG Publishing Started a New Diving Universe Store And right now it is having a grand opening sale. Go to www.divingintothewreck.com and browse around. Imagine the store without all the Grand Opening sales stuff. And imagine something like it as your own author web site. Yes, Shopify can do all kinds of looks and blogs and anything a regular web site can do and so much more. I loved the Pulphouse Shopify Store and our main WMG Books store we call “the mothership.” But when I saw how Stephanie Writt had built this store, the first thing I thought of was an author web site. It would be one of…
