Flat Amazing Workshop
Business Master Class in October 2019… I will talk more about it once everything is completely finalized, but wow I thought the last two years took indie business to a new level, this workshop in October will jump that up a long ways. The more we finalize all the details, the more excited I get. If interested, still room to jump in. Just write me. And follow this space for details. Lifetime Subscription to Lectures… This subscription is now the second best thing we offer. Over forty-some lectures up there and now we are adding in another twenty lectures on myths of writing and publishing. Five new ones are up…

Quick Afternoon Post
WMG Publishing Master Business Class… Hotel information sent over the list. So check that and get your room if you are signed up. It is really the best all around to be in the room block for the workshop. Once we fill the room block, everyone gets more discounts and a bunch of free stuff. I will be sending out more invites shortly to the Master Class group list for those who are signed up, but not on that list yet. So far here are the guests I can think of off the top of my head… Mark Leslie from D2D will be there. Also a major editor and writer.…

The Myths of Fiction Writing Lectures
Fiction Writing Myths Lecture Series… The first five lectures on the myths of fiction writing are now available on Teachable.com. There will be twenty lectures total, twenty different myths in four different lecture bundles. This first bundle of five lectures we are calling Creation. There will be three other bundles of five lectures each, totally twenty different lectures of nine or so videos each lecture. (They will appear as I get them recorded.) In other words, each bundle of five lectures has around 45 videos. Each lecture will have nine questions we ask about each myth. The nine questions for each myth are: — What is the origin of the…

Got Attitude
Attitude Online Workshop Starting… August 6th. ——- ATTITUDE IN WRITING FICTION Attitude is everything in fiction writing. From beating back fears, to taking the courage to try something new, to believing your work is worth publishing. Attitude can help you overcome doubts, believe in yourself on the outside while you doubt everything on the inside. A good attitude in fiction writing can be learned. There are also some really bad attitudes in fiction writing, ones that will quickly or eventually kill your writing. This workshop will deal with those as well, give you warning signs. Mostly this workshop teaches attitude and the confidence it takes to believe in yourself, in…

Two New Lectures and New Pop-Up
Having Fun Publishing Stories… Pop-Up #10 is all kinds of tricks for writers who have trouble either sending out short stories to magazines or getting short stories up indie. Fun solutions, actually. And it is in both the Pop-Up #6-10 bundle and also the Pop-Up #1-10 bundle. All other Pop-Ups are gone except for the free one, #9. You can only now get #1-#8 in the bundles. And this new one has a short story prompt with it, as normal. (Nope, won’t count for a Great Challenge short story. (grin) Come on, you can do two stories in a week.) The two lectures are the first quarter of 2019 Tips…

Holy Smokes… It Is July!
July Workshops Are Starting… I had no idea how it got to be suddenly July. Do we need to send out a search party for June? Wow, that Licensing Expo and all the learning just took June and flashed it past for me. So anyhow, working on reading challenge stories and getting out stretch rewards to the wonderful backers of Kris’s Diving Series. And because I didn’t realize it was July already, I almost forgot to do the assignments for the June workshops tonight and start the July ones. Almost no one signed up in the July workshops, so if interested, lots of room, just like this time every year.…

Got Sidetracked Tonight
Reading… Time just went flashing past. So this won’t be much of a post beyond what I need to do to meet my challenge streak of this daily blog since I am an hour beyond when I normally head to bed. Both novel and short story Great Challenges are still open. And the Licensing Learn Along will be open for one more week before I shut down sign-ups on it. All on Teachable. July Workshops will be starting in one week. The Writing Westerns will be there and I will be adding it to the Lifetime Subscriptions in a day or so. (It is the 7th new workshop added to…

Quick Saturday Post
Romance Study Along… The Romance Craft Workshop here in Las Vegas is September 20th through 24th and is taught by Kristine Kathryn Rusch, aka Kristine Grayson. It has been full for some time and everyone is reading the reading list Kris gave out. But the Romance Study Along on Teachable still has openings. And those signed up in that also have the same reading list. There is still time to jump into the Study Along and have time to read all the books on the reading list and take part in the Study Along. But not much more time. So check it out on Teachable.
