    Teachable Having Issues… And Covers…

    Displaying Courses All Screwed Up!! Teachable has teams on this and my gut sense they will have it fixed shortly, but if a WMG Teachable class is having problems displaying, just hang on. It will get solved. And it is all of Teachable, not just WMG. —- Another Cover Comparison… Again, the old one was done by what we call “a previous administration” of WMG, and Kris and I were not paying enough attention… By a long ways and trust me, shitty covers on our books was only a minor problem compared to larger problems we discovered later because we were not paying close attention. So in this new Kickstarter…

    FOUR ESSENTIAL INDIE PUBLISHING BOOKS Kickstarter…

    Actually There Are Twelve… Twelve writing books in this campaign. Eight by me and four by Kris. Starts at noon. Here is the link to FOUR ESSENTIAL INDIE PUBLISHING BOOKS Kickstarter. Plus there are  three classes at a deep discount, two Special Workshops only offered through this campaign, and every stretch goal is another writing class. And yes, if you already have them, you can give the classes to another writer. So help us pass the word and get this out to more writers so everyone can get even more books and writing classes. Live at noon.

    We Funded!! Very Quickly!

    Wow, Thank You!! Kris and I really love doing these “Collides” projects, and this is the 6th one, so at 100 stories per year, that is a lot of stories. And in this one, if you have the desire, you can get all 31 books in either electronic, paper, or hardback. And if you get the hardbacks, it is free shipping and Kris and I will sign all 31 books on the title pages. So here is the information again. Hope you take a look. And remember this has a few special workshops only available through this campaign. And at the same time, remember Kris opened up one more mentorship…

    DETECTIVES COLLIDE KICKSTARTER IS LIVE!!!

    DETECTIVES COLLIDE: A Make 100 Kickstarter Project For six years now, Kris and I have been doing this Collides Series of 100 of our short stories. 50 of hers, 50 of mine. On different subjects and topics each year. This time, for the sixth year’s topic, we are doing DETECTIVES COLLIDE. The detective stories move across all genres for both of us and there are a bunch of original stories in these books this time, plus stories never seen in any of the other Collides volumes. Yes, we do have that many stories. The previous five Collides Series volumes of five books each are: Colliding Worlds (6 books) Crimes Collide…

    Kickstarters…

    We Did 12 in 12 Months… That was a little much, to say the least, and we got behind, but as of now, except for some paper and hardbacks still fighting their way to escape from Ingrams, we have fulfilled pretty much everything. Since Kris and I are doing everything these days for our own writing, we realized that Kickstarters could be a really fun thing at times. Sure, we will still use them as a start of promotion of a new book or series of books. But we got laughing the other day about how much fun it would be to do a five day one, very focused, all…

    Kickstarter Friday (on a Saturday Night)

    Some Fiction Campaigns That Are Worth Studying and Backing… I do this every Friday (didn’t have time last night to search for more than one, so pushed it until tonight to try to find a few others, but without luck.) when I have a few Kickstartere campaigns I think are worth putting here. I will not say much negative about a campaign. If there is too much or it is going to fail, I won’t post it here. And for those wondering where I get off judging Kickstarter Campaigns by fiction writers, I have now done 56 of them, every one funded and made money. My first campaign was in…
