Study Along Online Classes…
They Go with the In-Person Classes… Study Along workshops are held at exactly the same time, with the same reading list. as the in-person classes here in Vegas. The In-Person workshops start in March and we have another every two months until January 2023. These are hardcore craft workshops. We are holding the in-person Vegas classes to 15 writers and everyone must be vaccinated, so we are very certain they will take place. So at the same time as each workshop here in Vegas, there is a study-along class by the same name that is online on Teachable. It will be held from Monday through Thursday with the same story…

Power Words
Time To Consider Them… Power words, just their existence, baffles writers. Actually, most writers never consider them. Writers who know how to use them, just use them. If you don’t know how to use them, it still happens by accident at times, just no control or focus. Kris and I have been talking about doing a Power Words workshop for a long time, just like we talked about a Depth in Writing for a long time before we actually launched it. But the idea that it was too advanced kept us from even trying it. Knowing about power words and using them in the right situations will jump your writing…

Doing a Half-Price Sale Again…
SUMMER SETBACK SALE… For all the details as to why we are doing this again, check yesterday’s post. But the short of it is that if you use the code SETBACK on any class or workshop, you will get it for half price. But remember, this is a short-term sale. Considering how open and once again free we were all feeling here in the States about this pandemic in May, where we are now with the pandemic is a setback in any terms. We are now all better off just staying in and letting this pass over us. Even those of us vaccinated. So lots of classes to take while…

COUNTING DOWN…
40 Hours Left As I Write This!! As I said last night, this Pulphouse Kickstarter campaign is turning out to be great for both writers and readers.

Three Updates…
Three Important Projects Going… I almost need the cats from Kris’s promotion central on Facebook to help with this, but sadly at this time of the night they are all asleep. — First Project, last night I talked about the six new and really fun In-Person and Study Along workshops Kris and I are going to do starting in March 2022 and going until January 2023. And that we also cancelled the Anthology workshop because of Covid. All the details are in the last post. And the six workshops all have lots of spots left as well as the Study Along workshops for all six. In interested in the In-Person…

NEW IN-PERSON VEGAS WORKSHOPS
Starting March 2022… First, before I tell you about the new Vegas writing workshops, I have to announce that the Anthology Workshop is officially cancelled. I have sent letters to everyone who is signed up, so if you did not get the letter and thought you were signed up, just write me directly. We just could not risk putting over 40 writers in the same room for four days, plus in a party room at night in this environment. But 15 vaccinated writers in a meeting room with great ventilation at a later time is another matter. So Kris and I came up with some really, really fun four day…

August Workshops Starting
First Half Started… Second half starts tomorrow night. And the two Special Workshops, Vastness of Space 2 and Writing Spaceships also both started. These are the last sessions of these two. So if you didn’t take them in July, this is the last chance. Almost no one signed up for August workshops this time around. Time of Great Forgetting mixed up with this pandemic mess. So no surprise to me. So if you do sign up, it might almost be private lessons. (grin) Another note. Stages of a Publisher will be gone after August. Last time to get it if interested. And this is the last time for Attitude as…
