    Update!

    And Thanks For the Feedback… I will give the new look a bunch more thought and maybe test something else down the road. But tonight I wanted to remind you of the Special Stretch Goal.

    Last Day of the Sale!!

    No More Extensions… And this will be the last day I talk about sales here for a very long time. That will be good because I got a lot of other great stuff to talk about, including copyright value, writing stuff, challenges, licensing, AI, and you name it. I might even talk about some of my own books at times. Yikes!! But no more talking about sales after today for a very long time. So here is the information one last time. Ends Friday night (April 7th) very late (meaning when I get done writing around 3 am West Coast Time.) At that time I flip the switch. ALL APRIL…

    Sale Now Ends Friday Night!!

    Yes, One More Extension… Just two days and the reason is that three people asked and since it will be a long time until another sale, I didn’t see a reason why not end it on Friday. Also, a number of people are interested in the Lifetime Subscription to Everything I talked about last night. Here are a couple of things me and WMG got worked out today. One… if you have the Everything subscription, and are in a challenge, WMG and I will find you some really fun and maybe unique awards if you hit the challenge. We instantly came up with some fun ideas and I will talk…

    Some Suggestions…

    Sale Still Going On… I thought I would give a few suggestions as to classes and workshops I think might be a good idea to think about grabbing at half price. Earlier I recorded the first weeks of the second quarter of both the Decade Ahead and Bite-Sized Copyright. The first quarter is done for both, starting on Monday into the second quarter. The first quarter would be easy to catch up on and then just go forward with the four videos every Monday morning through the rest of the year. No assignments, just knowledge and help. You can still get the full year (all four quarters) at half price.…
