Think Like a Publisher is a Workshop
New Online Workshop Starting in December… That’s right, a new one starting now with Novel Structure and a new business workshop called Think Like a Publisher starting in December. Some of you here remember the blog posts turned into a book called “Think Like a Publisher 2012.” I kept working to update it but could never contain the information into a book that seemed to work. So Kris and I started planning that once this new indie world settled a little, we would do the Think Like a Publisher as a workshop to get in all the information. After the last major business class here on the coast, we’re ready…

Anthology Workshop Surprise
I Was Surprised to Say the Least… Tonight I was doing a quick check of the upcoming coast workshops. We have the Master Business class here in a couple weeks, then the next up is the Anthology Workshop. That actually is the 24th of February to March 3rd. But the group list for the Anthology workshop will start in a week and the actual workshop starts at the end of November when the first writing assignments are sent out. Just over a month away. I had not looked at how many were signed up in a long time. My focus was elsewhere, to be honest, but tonight I discovered there…

Nifty Short Ad for Pulphouse Kickstarter

SPECIAL NEW OFFER!!! For those of you who are getting workshop credits through Kickstarter, for every workshop credit, you will also get a Classic Workshop credit.

Not Many Signed Up
AUGUST ONLINE WORKSHOPS STARTING… As is normal for August, very few people are signed up for the online workshops. They start on Tuesday and I think the list of workshops is a pretty good one, honestly. But summer seems to not allow people to spend the extra three hours a week or focus on the workshops. But that is normal. I see it every year. August is when a lot of writers wake up from the time of great forgetting to discover they have done little in the summer and are not behind on goals. If that is happening to you, just take a deep breath and reset the goals…

Two New Online Workshops Announced
Starting In July… We have put together two great new online workshops. Depth #3: Research and Writing Fantasy. Both of these are going to be great fun for me and Kris. And I’m going to have fun recording these as well. I think the Research workshop might be one of the most important ones we will do, considering how many times we have been asked about it. And Writing Fantasy is a massive topic to cover, but I think we have roped it down to something we can do and that would be fun and help you learn how to write better fantasy that will sell more. And get it…

And Then There Were Four
Five Cats To Four… One of our new additions from three days ago had to return to the rescue shelter. It seems that little Cloe (They called her Killer.) had a pretty solid hatred for other cats. (The shelter folks would have had no way of knowing that.) She was a sweetheart, sat on our laps, but growled at any other cat and then after two days started attacking the other two cats. Oh, oh. Since we have the two old boys upstairs that she hadn’t met yet, it was only going to get worse, so we checked around with a few friends who didn’t have a cat and then…

Deadlines
I Had A Deadline… Plus a number of the specials deadlines are about to expire. I hit my deadline, but for the third night in a row I didn’t get to do any short story reading. This weekend I sure will get caught up, which will be fun. And I didn’t do any writing either besides nonfiction writing for the deadline. I hope to finish the novel this weekend. I also hit my quarter mile run today, plus a total of five miles milage. Tomorrow a half mile. I stayed at my lower level this second progression because the first time through turned out to be so tough. No point…
