Lots of Great Things!!!
Thank you, all… Kris and I both really appreciate the well-wishes on our anniversary. It means a lot to us. And, of course, we spent the entire day working. (grin) LAST DAY OF THE EARLY BIRD SALE For the DESIGN FOR INDIE AUTHORS classes on The WMG Writer store. Don’t delay, it drops off Monday evening and unlike how Teachable works, this sale just automatically vanishes on the store. (grin) Here is the information I posted a few days back about it… A brand new series of workshops DESIGN FOR INDIE AUTHORS on the WMG Writer Store. We just announced all three, even though we have been working on them…

An Example of Two Brands
Author Brand and Project Brand… This Poker Boy Kickstarter campaign we hope to launch next week is really pulling together some clear images of how branding looks on the surface. I have an author brand that sort of got lost for a short time, but it back now very clearly. And projects it got lost on we will be rebranding very soon. Then Poker Boy now has a clear logo and covers that will be consistent over time with cards and fantasy women. So take a look at this image of some mugs we are offering in the campaign. My author brand, Poker Boy brand and logo, and the cover…

Value on Lifetime Everything Subscription…
Got An Observation That I Have To Respond To… Someone commented that if they bought a Lifetime Everything Subscription to our workshops on WMG Teachable, it would take years to make up for the costs in new workshops. I went, “Huh, that’s not right.” But I wasn’t sure, so I had to go figure it out to make sure. (grin) Here are the new classes and workshops we have added onto Teachable since January 1st of this year (2025). In essence under three months. ONLY THE NEW STUFF!! (Remember, the Lifetime Everything Subscription is for the 600 or so classes and workshops already there, plus everything going into the future.)…

Explaining the Class
LICENSING: HOW TO CREATE A BRAND The class is starting tomorrow. (Tuesday) It is a nine week class leading up to the Licensing Expo. It is on Teachable. So let me set a scene for you… You are at (name any place as a setting that you might run into someone with a connection to a license). For now just think major convention or the Licensing Expo, but it can happen anywhere and has to both me and Kris. A person who can license IP who is interested in finding new IP to license comes to learn you own IP. Here is how the conversation goes… Person: “So, what’s your…

I’m Laughing At Myself…
I Just Keep Thinking… That what has me totally fascinated and learning will also be interesting to other people. And I just keep thinking that knowing how to make a ton more money with your writing is a good thing. Nope, just not interesting to most writers. Seems that most writers are locked into the idea that what you make with sales is from Amazon. So because I was interested in laying it all out over nine weeks, I fired up a LICENSING — How to Build a Brand in the Nine Weeks Between Now and the Licensing Expo in late May. Starts Tuesday. Got a few Lifetime Everything Subscribers…
