Futures Workshop Series
First One Done… And still available. Second one starts in January. Third in March and last one in May. Four different six-week workshops on the topic of thinking about the future in your writing career. You can sign up for all four in a bundle of four and save some money and as I said, even though the first one is done, you can still go through it (at your own pace). https://wmg-publishing-workshops-and-lectures.teachable.com Or you can get a Lifetime Workshop Subscription with all the workshops in it (about $15,000 in workshops for $3,000) and for a short time get free tuition ($750 value) into the Business Master Class here in…

Spent My Night Trying to Get Writers to Follow Instructions
A Stupid Task I Must Admit… But critical for the anthology workshop to even begin to work. I am not sure what makes writers so incapable of following basic guidelines. Ah, well, this first week is over, so from here on out I can just bounce or ignore a story if the writer doesn’t get the instructions right. Much easier on me. I just wish I had the hours I lost tonight back. And on other news, the Pop-Up on Short Romance is now live. It has a short story assignment with it, as do the other Pop-Ups. However, the first Pop-Up is now gone and can only be accessed…

Fantastic Offer!
Master Class Offer to Lifetime Workshop Subscribers… Late last spring we offered anyone who was a lifetime subscriber to our online workshops, free tuition into our Las Vegas Master Business Class. This year, since a number of people have singed up for lifetime subscriptions since then, or who couldn’t make it last year, WMG Publishing decided to offer the same thing again for a limited time only. That’s right. If you sign up for a lifetime online workshop subscription or already are a lifetime online workshop subscriber, you get the $750 fee for the Master Business Class in October free. The lifetime online workshop subscription is $3,000 and it gets…

December Workshops Described
Figured It Was Time… So below is the list of the 12 regular workshops offered in December and following that a description of each. They are all now available and you can sign up for any of these on Teachable.com or if you have a workshop credit, write me. This is a great list of workshops for December. And this is less than half of the regular workshops we offer, not counting the Classic and the Futures workshops and Strengths. That’s why we offer a lifetime subscription to all workshops. (grin) DECEMBER ONLINE WORKSHOPS NOW AVAILABLE Class #61… Dec 4th … How to Study Writing Class #62… Dec 4th … Endings…

Workshop Credit Sale
I Was Reminded… Because of one of my posts, a couple people reminded me that often this time of the year, before Christmas, we offer online regular workshops at the same rate we offer them in the Fiction River Kickstarter. But only for a short time. I looked back and we have done this three years in a row now, so thanks, folks for the reminder. We’re going to do it for the 4th year starting today. So here is how it works. — Any regular workshop credit can be bought for $250. (Regularly $300) for the next week. (7 days, ending on November 19th) –You can buy as many…

Anthology Workshop
Write Six Stories, Then Possibly Sell Them… I am sort of surprised, in an odd way, that for the first time in years, the anthology workshop is not full at this point. We have five spots left open and the sign-ups end on November 24th because the writing starts on the 25th. Of course, almost all the northwest people are no longer coming. For years they had it easy. But for everyone else, Vegas is cheaper to get to than the coast and a ton easier in March. Let me change that metaphor. Light years easier. This might be the best workshop we do. But also the most frightening because…

2019 Anthology Workshop and 2019 Master Business Class
Both Have Openings… Over the next few days I will be starting the 2019 Anthology Workshop group list. And sending out hotel information and first story information. Now granted, the workshop doesn’t happen until March 1st through 5th in Las Vegas. But there is three weeks of writing three stories at the end of November and early December, then time off for the holidays, then three more weeks of writing in January. Then a lot of reading. So really the workshop starts at the end of November. So time is almost up. That’s right, for the anthology workshop you will write six short stories to specific guidelines for real markets.…

Great Discussions
As Is Normal… These major workshops always have great discussions. Impossible not to when you put fifty or so professional writers in the same room and late at night in a big suite and talk writing all day and night. This Master Business Class is about over, sadly. I have enjoyed the talks and focus on the business of writing. Maybe more this year than over the last few years, actually. And that is going some. I will talk about it more here over the next few days as I get caught up. Some fun stuff. Stay tuned. And anyone interested in signing up for next year’s Master Business Class…
