Writing Books and Workshops in Kickstarter…
Even More Writing Books and Writing Classes… This FOUR ESSENTIAL INDIE PUBLISHING BOOKS Kickstarter campaign that starts on Tuesday is turning out to be great fun. Kris will have four of her writing and publishing books available, including Writing With Chronic Illness. Here is the new cover on the book. And I am going to put four more writing books in as well. These four books were from a strange period in my life when I was trying to show writers how to write novels quickly. I detailed everything about every day and how I got to the computer to write and how long it actually took. And all four…

Kickstarter Friday
Nothing Sent To Me This Week… At least I hope I didn’t miss a campaign. And I spent some time yesterday and today on Kickstarter, not working on my own (which launches on Tuesday) but looking for some campaigns I wanted to back and talk about here. There are a lot of active fiction campaigns, but most focus on a special edition and three I found were anthologies that just didn’t look to me like they would be worth reading, but all three had funded, so good for them. So another Friday with nothing. Sigh… So here is the link and the header for my new nonfiction campaign starting on…

A Nifty Honor…
Kickstarter Liked Our Coming ESSENTIAL INDIE PUBLISHING BOOKS Campaign So they gave us the “Project We Love” designation before we even launched. That is a very real honor. How do we know we got it before we launched? Simple. Just hit the promotions link below. (While there hit the button to be reminded when we launch on Tuesday.) Essential Indie Publishing Books Kickstarter campaign. Then on the right, under my name, you will see that it has “Project We Love” there. When we launch that will go under the header. So cool!! That means Kickstarter, the organization, will spend a lot of time and space promoting our campaign because they…

New Kickstarter Campaign for Nonfiction Writing Books
Put the Covers Up Last Night… Kickstarter approved the campaign and now I got a link where you can read more about it. And the header. — ADVANCED MAGIC BAKERY basically explains in a simple metaphor how indie publishing works. — ADVANCED WRITING INTO THE DARK gives you all the tools to write clean, one-draft stories and novels without ever outlining or rewriting. — ADVANCED STAGES OF A FICTION WRITER helps you understand where exactly you are at on the road to being a professional writer and what to do to move forward with your dreams. — DISCOVERABILITY AND PROMOTION gives each writer a sense of what kind of promotion…

Kickstarter Friday
A New One And A Number Still Going! I do this every Friday, mostly from campaigns I was sent or a few that I found I thought worth supporting. 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 57 of them, every one funded and made money. My first campaign was in the very early days of Kickstarter. But if yoy are going to study campaigns that I have done, study the last year or so.…

Thank You All for the Support of Kris and My Kickstarter… All done now… But got three below that are still going and can use the help and I think are pretty good. I spotlighted all three a few weeks back before they launched, but doing it here again tonight now that they are active and you can really did into what they are offering. I was sent a few recommendations this week as well, but just couldn’t suggest them here for various reasons. But thanks for the recs. I will not say much negative about a campaign. If there is too much or it is going to fail, I…

Almost Missed This Blog Tonight
Came Very Close… 4 am, finishing up a bunch of other stuff, when I suddenly remembered I had not put anything here to keep my 14 year daily blog streak going. Almost said, “To hell with it.” But instead came back in my office, fired back up my computer, and going to give you the information one more time on the fantastic Kickstarter we have going. This is a really good one with 100 amazing detective stories. DETECTIVES COLLIDE: A Make 100 Kickstarter Project For six years now, Kris and I have been doing this Collides Series of 100 of our short stories. 50 of hers, 50 of mine. On…
