Decade Ahead Second Quarter 2020
Seven New Videos Are There… Also, since this second quarter is so different than any normal second quarter for writers, we have decided that no only will this Decade Ahead class go through the end of the year, but we will do the second quarter, and more than likely the third quarter, next year with a bunch of normal videos about how to get through these months writing in a normal year. This month, like last month, I have some videos up on how to write through this pandemic there as well. So another class gets extended. The licensing transition is already extended for a full year as well. Both…

Hoping To Finish Book
Starting on Wednesday… I will be doing two, maybe three more days of reporting on the Card Sharp Silver novel because I am going to focus all my attention on Wednesday and Thursday on writing and finishing it. I have three short story assignments due next week, so figured I had better get the novel done and off to WMG Publishing so those in the Shared World Class can get it in the middle of the month or so. That way next week I do the short story assignments and get started on another project. Speaking of classes, the Year of the Cat Course will be firing up next week…

Killing Critical Voice Workshop
Now Available!!! After that incredible response yesterday, and a ton of letters from people, all 100% wanting the new Killing Critical Voice workshop, Kris and I spent some time on it and it is now available. Thank you all for the feedback!! Like Writing with Depth workshop, and the Publishing 101 workshop, Killing Critical Voice workshop will be available every month. First one starts on June 3rd, next week. As we got this together, I was very surprised we hadn’t offered this one before. Sort of a well-duh kind of thing. And I warned in the introduction video, this might hurt a little for some people as I hit at…

Licensing Transition Class Extended One Year
Now Two Years Plus Long… Thanks to this virus, the Licensing Expo was postponed to first August, now to May 2021. The Licensing Transition class was supposed to work on all aspects of licensing of IP up and through the May Licensing Expo this year, but now that the Expo has been pushed back one year, we’re just going to keep going on the Licensing Transition class until a month after the Expo in 2021. So wow is this going to be a great deal for the money. And it is still open to sign up. A lot of videos over the last year have already been posted, plus one…

Short Post Tonight
First Off, Thanks for the Anniversary Wishes… Very much appreciated, both here on this blog and in letters and on Facebook. Kris and I are both kind of surprised it has been that long as well. (grin) Second, the code to get half off of the workshops or lectures or subscriptions is SummerLearning2020 A number of people today had trouble getting that in the right place. Basically you find a workshop or lecture or class you want to get half off for the next three days and hit “Purchase Course.” On the page that comes up, right at the top, it says, “Add Coupon.” Put in the code SummerLearning2020 at…

Summer Learning Workshop Sale
We Are Still Stuck At Home… At least for a little while longer, with the exceptions, of course, of the brave health care workers, police, grocery store clerks, and others struggling to help out. Everyone is talking about reopening, but no timelines yet because the virus won’t let exact dates happen. So, almost all of us are staying at home still, after months, making sure we do not spread this virus, to give the hospitals a chance to beat this thing. And slowly things are getting better. But to stay sane through this last part, we need to keep focused. Back in March (a very long couple of decades ago),…

Writing Bundles Kickstarter Almost Done…
All Seventeen of Our Writing Books in Five Bundles And from the looks of it, we are about to hit our top stretch goal, where all backers will get a bundle of classic workshops worth $600.00. (That means everyone would get $1,000 in value in lectures and workshops, plus First Tee Panic and Kris’s Freelancer’s Survival Guide.) That’s right! Not kidding. But only just over a day left. So don’t miss backing this one. UPDATE!!! We hit the top stretch goal!!! And a great way to back it is to get all five bundles of writing books reward, then add on the Creative Nonfiction Special Workshop. Remember, through this Kickstarter…

Vegas Workshops Postponed
I Had Planned to Write Today… Until all the work Allyson had been doing with the Golden Nugget for the Business Master Class finally got settled and signed. So as of right now, the last Business Master Class is scheduled for… October 11-14, 2021. That’s right, it is pushed back one year from this October and is now held from Monday through Thursday with cheaper room rates. So instead of writing, I spent the afternoon and part of the evening writing letters to everyone signed up, over sixty people. Basically, the workshop is just postponed. If you think you were signed up and didn’t get a letter from me, write…
