David Farland Joins the Master Class

The Master Class Will Be Stunning…

New York Times bestselling writer David Farland has joined the other amazing instructors at the Master Business Class in October in Las Vegas. Dave is not only an expert teacher of writing and publishing, but also an expert in all things Hollywood. Plus, as most of you know, he is the executive editor of Writers of the Future.

Also, David Vandergriff, aka The Passive Guy, will be there, along with New York Times Bestsellers Kevin J. Anderson, Rebecca Moesta, Kristine Kathryn Rusch and many other experts. See the list below.

The workshop is October 19th through the 23rd. A firehose of information at the top levels of indie publishing business.

Folks, you don’t want to miss this one. Write me at dean.wmgworkshops@gmail.com to get more information and instructions on how to sign up and pay for the workshop.

The workshop is being held at the Golden Nugget in downtown Las Vegas in a beautiful and modern convention center. There is a block of room you want to be in because it will be cheaper and also for ease and other reasons. I will send you a code to get into the workshop room block once you sign up.

Normally, for the last three years, this workshop was sold out by now, but we still have room in the workshop this year because of the move to Las Vegas and so many people having to drop out due to the change in venue. So we have room, but don’t wait too long to sign up. I expect this workshop with this cast of instructors to fill quickly now.

Again, a don’t-miss workshop.

Here is the basic information…
