2020 Anthology Workshop Moved Up One Week
For A Good Reason… Everyone who is signed up for 2020 Anthology Workshop should have gotten a letter from me about this. If you think you are signed up and didn’t get a letter, or want to sign up (filling quickly), write me at dean.wmgworkshops@gmail.com The point is that I wanted to let everyone know that the dates for the 2020 Anthology workshop have been moved one week sooner, to February 21st through the 26th. Everything else is the same and we will start writing in November like normal. The reason for the change was the Golden Nugget Hotel and Casino contacting us and giving us an option to change…

Emotion Workshop…A Sample
Lifetime Subscriptions… You should already know that the Emotions workshop is in their subscription. Anyone with a lifetime subscription to workshops can take a new workshop when it starts up or wait and take it any time down the road. And you don’t have to tell me you want to be in it. Lifetime subscribers are automatically in. One subscriber asked if it was better for me to have them take it first time out or wait until later. For me, it makes no difference. But for the subscriber, it might be better to wait and get out of the crowd. (grin… not that many people taking it the first…

Slow On Email
Normally I Keep Up Just Fine… But the last few days I have been a bad boy, staying out too late with all the writers and talking writing and having far, far too much fun. So I will be catching up on email tomorrow (Wednesday). Sorry for the delay on that. And wow has the Anthology Workshop been fun this year. First time here in Las Vegas and it went off without a hitch. I want to thank all the editors who ended up putting at least eight anthologies together. That’s right, eight, plus I bought twenty stories for the next year of Pulphouse Magazine. If interested in next year’s…

I Warned You There Would Be Pictures
Actually Only One Photo Is Needed… About fourteen writers from the anthology workshop got up early and went out to run. Plus about five writers to cheer us on. Super fun. We had doughnuts waiting for us back in the anthology suite in the hotel for when we got done running and before we started into the workshop. The run was a 5k charity run with lots of celebs and others from around Vegas out to support it. Joe Cron said we should do a group shot before the start and we got photo-bombed by two members of the Blue Man Group. (One is holding the boombox over Joe’s head.…

Running Tomorrow…
That’s Right… Another 5K Fun Run… Only this one has about 14 or so professional writers taking part. And doughnuts afterwards in the convention suite before we start for the day on stories. Some of them vegan doughnuts. All wonderful. There will be pictures, so expect those. I will be near the back of the pack. And it will be great fun. We opened up the evening talking suite tonight, a penthouse suite with more than enough room for fifty professional writers to gather in groups and talk in the evening. The networking will be great fun on this workshop, just like the Master Business Class in October. So now,…

Anthology Workshop Firing Up
Starts Friday and Goes to Wednesday Morning… Going to be a blast, I can tell you that right now. About fifty writers, about forty-some stories per anthology for eight different anthologies, plus some surprises as we always do. Wonderful fun. And for the first year in years, I am done with my reading ahead of the workshop. I am shocked, I say, shocked… We have announced next year’s anthology workshop, but don’t wait too long to sign up. We limit this to 50 writers at most and each year it fills completely. And you start writing at the end of November for next year’s class. If interested in next year’s,…

Real Las Vegas Workshops Deadlines
We Give The Dates the Workshops Are Held… But that is not the deadline to sign up by any means. The workshops, for the most part, all start months and months ahead of the actual date you need to attend. For example, the Mystery Workshop here in Vegas in April is closed, not because it is full but because the reading list for it went out over a month ago and those attending need time to read. And that goes the same with those in the Study Along for the mystery workshop. We don’t close that one because someone might want to just watch the videos, but if you want…
