Some Questions About Master Class
Got Three Major Questions… — A number of people asked if they paid now for the last Master Business Class to hold their spot and something happened and they couldn’t make it, what would be the policy on the money. Basically, it is fully refundable or transferable up to one month ahead of the workshop, then if within one month and you cancel it is only transferable. We all have life events, so that’s what we can do. — Who will be teaching next year? Well, we have talked with a number of instructors and later this spring will start putting the staff of instructors together. But you can see…

2020 Master Business Class… Last One…
Last Master Business Class… That’s right, the 2020 Master Business Class will be the last one. So it will fill quickly. You can see the 2019 Master Business Class information and the dates for the 2020 Master Business Class at www.wmgworkshops.com The one we just finished was fantastic, and we know next year will be as well, with a focus on even more licensing and audio advances and a ton more stuff that is cool and cutting edge for writers. (I took over thirty pages of notes this year.) We will announce guest instructors for 2020 as we get them, but for the moment take a look at the web…

Some Workshop Stuff
Letters Out to Pulphouse Story Workshop… If you supported the Pulphouse Kickstarter with the Pulphouse Story Workshop level and have not gotten a letter from me with the log-in information, write me. This is the last time this workshop will be offered, and it is not offered for anyone but those who signed up on the Kickstarter, so don’t delay. I have gotten letters out to everyone that we know of. Workshop starts on Tuesday, the 5th. Also, November Regular Workshops start next week. Some good ones. List below. And after this last week, the Licensing Transition is going to have a ton of new stuff shortly. A mind-altering week…

Back to Normal
Back to Writing and Eating Well and Exercising… Although there wasn’t a day during the Master Business Class that I was under 13,000 steps. So I at least maintained that. And I ended up with about thirty pages of notes and information and cool details and helpful hints and major things. (Remember, Kris and I were putting this on and I still got thirty pages of notes.) Wonderful writers, great discussions, and I feel both energized and exhausted at the same time. So going to feel good being back in schedule. Real good. I will be caught up on missed email shortly and then will start into the challenge stories…

Last Day
Master Business Class… This year the focus has been on licensing and I will be adding a lot of information over the next few weeks to the licensing transition class on teachable. It has been fantastic fun! And, of course, I have stayed up far too late every night, enjoying late night deserts and food with friends, not counting standing and sitting around for hours in the hospitality suite, talking everything from covers to licensing to cats (you know writers). But now into the last day. So if I have missed a letter from you or something, I will be clear and back here in just over 24 hours. Just…

Corporations, Taxes, Copyright, and Trademarks…
Oh, My… Finishing up my notes tonight for those two lectures tomorrow that I will give to the Business Master Class. We are halfway through the licensing stuff and that has been fantastic so far. So more tomorrow, then I get to talk way down into the weeds on how to set up a licensing business and save a ton of money doing so. Going to be a blast. So off to finish up my notes and get some sleep. And try to digest the far, far too much food I ate today. Wonderful food, but still far, far too much.

Nothing to See Here
Saturday Night and Up Too Late Talking with Writers… And I left my car at the hotel and walked back to the condo because I am used to walking and not driving and I was thinking about some writing stuff and just flat forgot. Oh, well, it will be there tomorrow. But I am having fun, learning a bunch, and excited as this class moves forward. Fun conversations at lunch as well, and fun conversation with Kevin and Rebecca at dinner, which is why I had the car in the first place. So now going to go shut my mind off, get some rest, and do it again tomorrow, all…

Once Again the Power of a Streak
Without This Blog Streak I Never Would Have Turned on This Computer… But with this many years of never missing a day, even with doing a lot of other fun stuff today, I turned on the computer to type something here. Did it matter what I type? Nope. To hit the blog streak, the daily blog streak, it just had to be something. You know, I am alive, the streak is alive, and so on and so on. Imagine if you were doing this kind of streak with your writing, that no matter how late, how much your mind was elsewhere, you wrote 250 words a day on a streak.…

Four New Videos in Licensing Transition
Plus the Holiday Spectacular Funded… It officially made two stretch goals on Kickstarter, but we also took money outside of Kickstarter this time because of Kickstarter’s political problems, and we ended up also hitting the third stretch goal in total. A complete success, better than we had hoped. So everyone who supported the Holiday Spectacular will get all three stretch rewards, plus the reward they picked. Surveys going out next week. And don’t worry if you missed out on the nifty idea of getting 35 holiday stories in 35 days, we will have a web page dedicated to that where you can get a subscription to the stories. Or buy…
