Strength: Regular Business Now Available
The Strength: Regular Business Workshop is now available and live…
As I said a few days ago, Kris and I will be looking at writer’s work and testing writers to help each writer personally find out where they are at and what they need to learn going forward.
So now the Regular Business workshop is up, focusing on Copyright, Money and Cash Streams, Business Structure, Time Management, Wills and Estates, and a ton more. Find out how much you know about all those topics and also where to find help for what you don’t yet know.
THE POINT…
All the Strengths Workshop are designed to help you understand story craft, business, and sales and where you are at at this moment in time. We will tell you where you are strong and where you need to work. And we will give you help on how to find ways to improve in each area.
We will do this in personal letters to you after five different assignments. It is very valuable to know in craft, business, and sales how you are doing and where you need work going forward.
And how to even do that work.
Kris and I take this very seriously in trying to help you move forward.
THE OVERALL STRUCTURE…
… Regular Craft (now available)
… Advanced Craft (in a week or so)
… Regular Business (now available)
… Advanced Business (over a week away)
… Regular Sales (available Thursday)
… Advanced Sales (available in under two weeks)
Each will consist of five assignments followed by a number of videos talking about the area and how to find help. (In essence, each will be about the same as a six week online workshop, only you can do it at your own pace. That means you can take months or just weeks. Up to you.)
You will send us each assignment and within 24 hours we will respond with a personal letter talking about your answers and where you are strong and where you need work.
Yes, I said 24 hours. No more waiting until a certain day of the week to get the response. For only these strengths workshop we will do our best to respond in one day.
TWO RULES… You can not turn in the next assignment until we have gotten a response to you for the previous assignment. So you should be able to do the class in about a week if you are willing to work that hard. Second, you must take the regular level before you can take an advanced level.
TIME LIMITED TO PURCHASE
The videos for each will always be available for you to return to at any given point into the future, but in just over a month Kris and I will stop taking new sign-ups and shut down the workshops to anyone not already signed up. (Yes, everyone signed up can finish, no problem, even if it takes into 2018. Your pace completely. Just need to sign up quickly.)
LOCATION
The workshops will be on Teachable.com where the lectures already are and also where the classic workshops will end up.
The link to the full group is http://wmg-publishing-workshops-and-lectures.teachable.com/
You will need to sign up into an account on Teachable and then go to the Strengths Workshop at the bottom of the list. Right now only the Regular Craft and Regular Business are available. All six will be there.
DISCOUNT
Each segment is $300, but it you take three, you get the 4th one for free. If you take all six, we will give you a free monthly workshop as well. Contact me directly if interested in working on all six into the future.
(We are sorry but the Kickstarter discounted workshops do not count for this special. Those are good for all the regular monthly workshops only.)
PAYMENT
You can sign up and pay on Teachable with Paypal or Credit Card through Stripe. We can also take payment in a regular way through the WMG Publishing Paypal account. Also, if you would like to write a check, write me directly and I will give you that information.
If you want to sign up for the ones not live yet and pay in bulk, you will have to pay through the WMG Publishing Paypal account hooked up to my e-mail address. I will give you a code to get in when each workshop comes live. Write me directly if you have questions. (Full cost of all of these combined would be $1,500… five workshops, one free, plus you get a free online workshop for doing all six.)
DETAILS OF THE REGULAR CRAFT STRENGTHS WORKSHOP
The regular craft strength workshop focuses on basically all the major areas of a novel or story. We will see how you are doing with openings, character, cliffhangers, endings, pacing, and a bunch more.
We will tell you where you are strong and where you need more work in all of those areas. And we will be clear and blunt.
Kris and I have been professional fiction writers for over thirty years and editors as well along the way. We have made our living at fiction writing in one form or another for over thirty years. You won’t find this kind of help discovering where you are at anywhere else.
Feel free to write me with questions.

The regular business strength workshop focuses on basically all the major areas you have to have completely under control in the business of publishing.

How does this compare to the 6-week business workshop I’m taking now?

This is a test of where you stand from the basics up to more advanced. Business workshop covers some of it, some more in depth. So after the business workshop this might be something you might think about to see where you stand and to get a roadmap into the future.
