Mondays Are Always Fun…
And Really Hard… Mondays I need to spend a lot of time at the computer. This morning I started off finishing up some work left on laying out Smith’s Monthly issue. Detail computer work. Then this afternoon I did email and some of the homework assignments. More computer time. Gave my eyes a rest by going to the store and taking a nap, but after dinner back doing assignments. Got everything finished on that front by 12:30 am with one break to watch some television. Then off to write a daily short story. Finished the 3,000 word story at 3 am, then came over here to my internet computer to…

Writing and Workshops and Smith’s Monthly
Scary Busy Day… I finished getting an issue of Smith’s Monthly to WMG publishing for copyediting. Then in a few days I will need to lay it out. I wrote a good 2,000 words in introductions and stuff for the issue. Also had an hour-plus meeting with WMG on different stuff. I also did a ton of workshop stuff today. And a lot of assignments. (I don’t count all those words and letters in my total.) And tonight I wrote a 3,000 word Thunder Mountain short story called “Yesterday’s Cold Grave.” So wow are my eyes tired and I need to keep this blog short. So just going to tell…

Didn’t Run… Slept!
Kris and I Both Slept In… We figured we needed the sleep more than we needed the three miles. And boy were we right. And I took another hour plus nap later before finally feeling rested. Don’t buy any workshops tonight or in the morning until I give the go-ahead. We have decided to do a Mid-Winter sale. (Actually the code will be MidWinter to get half price.) That said, when the sale starts, I do have all the March workshops up, including the new one SECRETS IN CRAFT. It is a craft workshop talking about the secrets of writing better fiction. Might be one of the best craft workshops…

March In-Person Workshop Cancelled… Not for Covid reasons, but because only three people were signed up. No surprise. So the March workshop THRILLER/HUMOR is going to be online in the Study Along format. The reading list has been out for that for a time now, so if you are in the Study Along for THRILLER/HUMOR, better get reading. It will take place March 21st to 24th. The May in-person craft workshop here in Vegas is going to happen just fine and the reading list for that is already out as well.
