One Time Science Fiction Cover Branding Workshop
BRANDING SCIENCE FICTION COVERS WORKSHOP… We did a form of this workshop back in May for four weeks that filled almost instantly and another one on Fantasy Covers in July that also filled. So Allyson had fun on both workshops and I didn’t get killed by the writers, so I talked Allyson into doing the workshop for branding a science fiction covers and series. Any type of science fiction. So here are the details… Allyson Longueira, the publisher of WMG Publishing has offered to design a cover and help brand a science fiction series for a limited number of writers.

A Sort of Repeat
Still Having a Little Site Issue… So while the issue is getting cleared up, with luck by tomorrow (Monday), I figured I would just tell you again about the Pulphouse Fiction Magazine Kickstarter.

The Nifty Video
Watch Kris and I Age… This is the video that is on the Pulphouse Fiction Magazine kickstarter. Kris did it and I think caught the attitude of both the history and the magazine. Take a look if you haven’t seen it. Kris and I age. (grin) And right now, as I post this, we are at $4,000, only $1,000 away from making the goal in just two days. That makes my heart glad that our history with Pulphouse is coming back in this new form, with some writers from the original magazine and some fantastic new writers. And remember, you can get discounts on workshops and lectures while supporting Pulphouse.…

Just Going To Call It A Day
Not Much Else to Say About Today… Stuff happened, things got done, battles were waged, the internet was slow everywhere, and the day went past. And sometimes that’s all you can say about a day.

A Collectables Day Finally
Got to Play With Stuff Today… After the writer’s lunch I went over to Sheldon McArthur’s place and had a blast talking and working with Shelly and his wonderful wife. First off, because I missed last month’s auction, Shelly bought a bunch of stuff that he knew I would want and he was spot on the money. Great stuff. And then we looked at a massive Coca Cola Christmas collection we will be picking up for the stores later in the week. And also an original Dell Comics stand. That’s right, a Dell Comics comic stand, in stunningly good shape. And I collect Dell Four Color comics, so they will…
