USING THE FLASH SALE…
… To Keep Focused Over the Next Few Months… We are in the Time of Great Forgetting, where writers with the best of intentions and the firmest of deadlines just sort of find days and weeks and months going by with little getting done with the writing and publishing. The time lasts from the middle of April until August 1st. (Why do you think so many major movies come out during these months?) This is a time to play for the population, to garden, to travel, and especially after the last two years, we all want to get out and do anything. So Kris and I figured that a very…

Fun New Stuff…
Next Kickstarter Campaign Will Have 10 Stretch Goals… They will have a new form of video event that will be amazing fun, a different one in each stretch reward.

Media Kit Workshop
Changing Some Workshop Stuff… Going to finally climb off the two-month rotation of workshops and offer every regular workshop every month. Just going to be so much easier, but going to take me a little time to get June workshops, the first month for that, loaded up. Also the two special workshops, Ideas and Time in Space from the last Kickstarter campaign start their last sessions on May 3rd. Everyone got the links and codes for those a month ago. As far as the Focused Study stuff, we are still doing that for anything you think you might need help with. We will tell you if it is the right…

All Kinds of Stuff Today
A Day of Finally Getting to Things… We all have those kinds of days. And I got a hunch I will be doing more and more of that this week and through next week as the craziness ebbs some after a stupidly long month of no time to breath it seemed. And yes, on the challenge, I missed some nights. But I will talk about that later and am writing fine now, so more than likely will start doing some extra stories next week to put in the missed slots. And I finally have my system in place. Part of what caused me to miss was my system collapsed, as…

WORKSHOP SALE EXTENDED!!!
Workshops Half Price Until Sunday Evening… This is my fault and I hope it helps some of you. I have three workshops I had intended to move to Classic status before the sale ended, but since it was going to end today, and I wasn’t going to get to moving the workshops to classic until late today, three or four people asked and I just moved the end of the sale back until Sunday evening. The three formally regular workshops that will be classic workshops are Attitude, Secrets, and Publishing 101. So watch for those tomorrow afternoon or evening and grab them for half off.
