    Two Advanced Craft Classes…

    Both Starting May 12th… We have an entire series of advanced  craft classes that are nine weeks long with eight assignments. They are advanced to help you move your storytelling skills forward. In May, the two advanced craft classes we are offering are… ADVANCED CLIFFHANGERS… FLOATING VIEWPOINTS… You may think cliffhangers only have one job, but honestly they are the glue that holds a book together in a dozen different ways. This class always surprises people. And if you think that “head-hopping” as beginning writers call it is bad, you clearly are only reading beginning writers. All stage four writers move viewpoints at will and as a story demands and…

    History of Science Fiction Through a Personal Perspective

    New Four Week Class Without Assignments This is a stretch goal that was hit in our last Kickstarter. It has now been sent out to all backers and also all Lifetime Everything Subscribers have it in their subscription. History of Science Fiction From a Personal Perspective Kristine Kathryn Rusch and I have been around science fiction for a very long time. I sold my first short story to a small science fiction magazine fifty-one years ago. During the early decades in the field of science fiction and fantasy, we got to know many of the writers and fans who helped start and build the genre. You see, science fiction is…

    Really Fun Topics

    These Came Up In The Wednesday Webinar… Most of you know that in our Kickstarter campaigns, for the last numbers of years, we have done special workshops. Most of the time they have been pretty basic and focused on one thing each. And in each Kickstarter campaign, we try to match the special workshops with the topic of the campaign. It would be logical to do two mystery classes in the Candid Shots Mystery Stories of Kristine Kathryn Rusch. But we have done a lot of mystery classes of different types. And then in the Wednesday webinar for the seminar, somewhere in the conversation the idea of doing an advanced…

    Half-Price Classes…

    Everything On WMG Teachable Half Price… I had a couple of writers ask me if we were ever going to do a workshop sale again on WMG Teachable. I was surprised.

Everything. 50% off. Just go to WMG Teachable, find a class you want to take, and hit purchase. Then put in the code and hit apply and you will get the class for 50% off. The code is……
