I Will Be So Happy….
To Not Have To Talk Here About Workshop Sales… At least until next April. (If then.) I got so many other things I would rather talk about here. Like the stories I am reading and other learning stuff. Fun stuff. To be honest, even though the sales are a great deal for writers to keep learning, I am bored pushing them. Maybe that will change by April.

One More Day of Filler
Should Have Expected a Tired Day… …after spending over ten hours yesterday hauling and moving truck-loads of stuff. But I thought I would be back to speed today. Nope. Almost, but nope. Still got a lot done, though. At one point today there were six WMG Employees in the new store putting things together. And we still had two of our stores open and someone still in the publishing office. Great fun. Josh got a great picture of me up on a ladder with Dan, the manager of the bookstore holding my belt to make sure I didn’t go over backwards since the ground was soft under the ladder. Below…
