    One Day Left on Fantasy Kickstarter

    Ends Thursday Evening… I want to remind you all again about the two fantastic workshops in this Kickstarter. Do you really know the steps and what it takes to revive a book or series that is four or five years old and not selling much if any? Or maybe the book never sold many copies and needs a first push. The first workshop will give you a step-by-step plan on how to do it. The second special workshop is something everyone needs. How to Take Risks. Fiction writing and publishing should never be safe. Check it out here… — #1… HOW TO REVIVE AN OLDER BOOK OR STORY…  This is…

    Two Really Special Workshops in Kickstarter…

    You Only Have Until Thursday Evening… For the writers who love to write stories and learn the craft and business of writing, we are offering some very, very special treats through this 3 Epic Fantasy Kickstarter campaign. These two courses will only be offered through this campaign and nowhere else, so don’t miss them. Check it out here… — #1… HOW TO REVIVE AN OLDER BOOK OR STORY…  This is a special three-week workshop on how to revive an older book or story (without rewriting it). In this modern world, books often fade in sales until basically no reader sees them. Yet the book (as the three in this campaign)…

    I Want My Hour Back…

    I Write Late At Night… Suddenly, even though I knew it was coming, I lost an hour of writing time. Just poof!! Gone. But still managed to get a lot done today. Everyone who was interested in my coaching on the publishing side I got back to. (Still two spots open… write me.) The workshops on those areas are for the moment on hold. Just could not get them worked out the way I wanted. They were going to be on three areas. (Same areas the coaching is in…) From manuscript to book laid out and published around the world in electronic and paper. From publishing through building a publishing…

    Kickstarter Firing Up At Noon!

    IF YOU LOVE FANTASY NOVELS… That is the Kickstarter for you. Three epic fantasy novels written by Kristine Kathryn Rusch. Brand new editions of THE WHITE MISTS OF POWER, HEART READERS, and TRAITORS.  All three books stand alone and are fantastic epic fantasy, so in bringing them forward into the light, Kris felt they all belonged together, so we branded them together. Turned out fantastic. And we hark back to the past just a bit. THE WHITE MISTS OF POWER was put out a few months ahead of the mass market edition in a limited slipcased hardback, numbered and signed by Kris. She is willing to part with just five…

    3 EPIC FANTASY NOVELS…

    WRITTEN BY KRISTINE KATHRYN RUSCH… That is the Kickstarter we have starting tomorrow. Brand new editions of THE WHITE MISTS OF POWER, HEART READERS, and TRAITORS.  All three books stand alone and are fantastic epic fantasy, so in bringing them forward into the light, Kris felt they all belonged together, so we branded them together. Turned out fantastic. And the two special writing workshops in this one are great. One is HOW TO REVIVE GREAT OLDER NOVELS AND STORIES. I noticed as we were working on this project, there were a bunch of steps to bringing a book out of the dark. So we thought we would show all of…

    Kris Post On Facebook…

    From Her Perspective on the Rock ‘n Roll Half Marathon… As anything Kris does, really clearly written and fun to read, even if I was one of those stragglers managing to get to food. The real challenge of that run wasn’t  the 13 miles because that was all in the middle of the street. The real challenge was going that far and then having to go another three miles through and around and up stairs and down stairs in and out of six or seven casinos and hotels. (First time I ever set foot in the Waldorf…) I kept being short with Kris every time she called me because I…

    Not Much To Say About the Story Challenge…

    I Just Manage to Work At It Every Night… Sometimes also during an afternoon. Taking me from 2 to 3 hours a day. Often in the first 45 minutes I manage around 500 words, then take a break and I get about 1,300 words an hour from there. Kris is reading a story as she has a chance. She has read about thirty or so of them. And I am using some of them to  fill up the last volume of the third Marble Grant collection. (Thought I had enough without checking… so wrote some in January and some this month to fill the collection.) They should be out later…
