Crimes Collide Kickstarter Is Live!!
Watch the Video! I have linked to it below here. Much fun and a ton of great workshop stuff for writers and a ton of great reading for readers. And since at times we do the half-price sales on workshops, we put some half-price workshops on the campaign as well since there is no telling when we will have another sale. And Crimes Collide is a really, really fun set of books. Kris and I are both very proud of it. Crimes Collide Kickstarter Campaign.

CRIMES COLLIDE Kickstarter
Mystery Collection of 100 Stories… Kris and I liked what happened last year with COLLIDING WORLDS sf collection, so we are doing it again with mystery. Same format… twenty mystery stories per book, ten by her, ten by me, five big books total. Damn these are fun to do. And the Kickstarter has some really fun surprises. Lots and lots of books and stories for readers, of course. Every award included all five of the CRIMES COLLIDE books. Every reward, even the workshop rewards. And wow do we have some great stuff in this one for writers. Two Special three-week workshops like we have been doing. WRITING MYSTERY ENDINGS and…

Bundle and Kickstarter
Two Things Happening At the Same Time! First off, a brand new Storybundle starting called VISIONS OF THE FUTURE. Ten great books and I curated it. Just started tonight and I will be back here in two days to talk a lot more about it. But here is a nifty image of all the covers of the books you can get for very little money in this Storybundle. Second… JUST TWO DAYS LEFT IN THE HOLIDAY KICKSTARTER with all its fantastic stories and books, all its amazing workshops, and 38 original holiday stories delivered one per day every day over the holidays. Lots of information in the last number of…

Only 60 Hours Left!!
Just Hundreds Away From Next Stretch Goal!!! More free books and another free Pop-Up writers’ workshop when we hit it. And I think we can hit two or three more, actually. There are just 60 hours left on the WMG Holiday Spectacular 2021. But that is enough time. And the higher we go, the more free stuff every backer gets. And classes writers get. And remember the two special classes in this one. And discounts for other workshops. Plus the really cool part of getting an original holiday story every day from November 25th to January 1st. That is 38 original stories. Yes, original stories!! If you are going to…

Workshops Available in Holiday Spectacular Kickstarter
There Are A Bunch of Workshops… And All Get You the Calendar!! We have two special workshops for writers in this campaign. And the only place you will ever be able to get either one is right here. You can buy either one or you can buy them both together at a discount. No matter what you will also get the 2021 Holiday Calendar with 38 stories delivered to you daily. Both workshops are three weeks long, and the final week’s assignment for both workshops will be to write a short story that Kris will read for the 2022 Holiday Spectacular. We will offer both workshops twice. You have your choice of…

Some Clean Up… And Writing Stuff
Special Workshop Codes Are Out… First, if you signed up for a special workshop in the last Kickstarter, either Making Place a Character or How to Use the Rule of Three, the links and codes are out. If you were signed up for one or both of those workshops, and didn’t get a letter from me with the Subject Line “Special Workshop” (or Workshops), please check your spam filter over the next day or so. If not there, no worries, we have time. Write me and I will get you the codes when I get back later in the week. Second, refunds on the Diving Game are slow, and I…

Might Make Stretch Goal #7!
Getting Close!! Stretch Goal #7 not only has a free copy of a great Fiction River anthology for everyone, but it also has a Pop-Up Class for writers that a number of writers have written me about. Spade/Paladin Kickstarter Pop-Up: Stamina and Strategies to Write a Lot. You wouldn’t think there would be a lot to learn about that, but this idea for a Pop-Up came about one afternoon as Kris and I were headed somewhere and we got talking about writing a lot and how we both do certain things that allow us to not only write a lot each day on a bunch of projects, but keep it…

Kickstarter Ends Thursday
Don’t Miss This One… It has already funded and hit five stretch goals. Check it out at… Spade/Paladin Kickstarter Campaign. And remember there are two special workshops in this one that are going to be great. How to Make Place a Character in Your Story and also The Rule of Three and How to Use It. So many people write me wanting to get into these special workshops after the campaign is over and we just don’t allow it. Only way into these is through this campaign and there is only three days left!! Both workshops are three weeks and you can take them either starting October 26th or November…

So Close to Stretch Goal…
Maybe We’ll Hit it By Morning… On the Spade/Paladin Kickstarter campaign, we are almost to the last stretch goal we had posted when we started. But no fear, Kris and I tomorrow (Friday) will post two more. We’re just trying to decide what to post. So right now I am having ups and downs on the computer connection again, so going to get this up quickly. Back tomorrow with the new stretch goals even if we don’t hit it tonight. UPDATE: Told this didn’t actually show up until this morning… So kind of a silly post since we did hit the stretch goal and I will be back shortly with…

Coming Up With New Stretch Awards
Not An Easy Task… The Spade/Paladin Kickstarter Campaign is about $2,000 away from the top stretch goal we have listed, which includes a Pop-Up class called Automatic Depth. So Kris and I have been working to come up with one or two more stretch goals since there is still nine days left on the campaign. Now not complaining at all. The fact that we are needing to do this is very, very cool. So we will be listing some more books for readers and Pop-Up classes for writers in brand new stretch rewards on Wednesday or Thursday. So if you have any ideas of a Pop-Up you would really love…
