New Classic Workshop Now Available
There Are Now Ten of Them… That’s right, over the holiday I finally managed to get Writing Thrillers Classic Workshop up and on Teachable. Classic Workshops are workshops that used to be Regular Workshops at one point or another. The information is still good, but we moved them to classic to get them out of the monthly rotation. They cost $150 and there are six weeks of videos. And there are assignments, but you only do them for yourself. You do not turn them into me. Another difference from Regular Workshops is that you can go through the Classic Workshops at any point, all six weeks as fast or as…

Just Workshops All Day
Moving All Workshops Takes Time… I really had no idea how long it would take to move the workshops to Teachable. Wow. But got all of December workshops there now and started. So about 80% of this battle done. So much nicer there. I will be bringing up the January workshops there over the next week plus a Classic workshop to the list. Slow but sure at this point. ————– Short Story and Novel Challenge I am only taking five on each challenge starting on January 1st. So don’t miss on this one if you want a great challenge to start off your new year. Details are a few posts…

Last Day for Workshop Offer!
Almost Done… The offer is below the list of workshops. I wanted to post them here again tonight in no particular order except that the Depth should be first. Below that are the Classic Workshops available at the moment, then the special offer. I am amazed we have 19 Regular Workshops and 6 Strengths Workshops and 9 Classic Workshops, with more Classic coming on line over the next week or so. That built up far, far more than we had ever expected this to do. But Kris and I are very proud of these workshops and the help they give to writers who are driven to learn. LAST DAY!!!. A…

Got Story Five Done by 6 A.M.
It Seems Being Exhausted Helps… I got to the story this morning at 3:30 a.m. Far, far, too late. But… My Day Went Like This… Just trust me, there was no stopping except for one nap, cook dinner, and watch one hour of The Voice. The rest of the day was going from 2 p.m. until now, 6:30 a.m. And yes, I got my 10,000 steps. I sat down at 3:30 and looked at my half-title sheet and decided the first thing I looked at I would go with, so that was “Under Glass.” And I would do a Cold Poker Gang mystery, since I have those characters in my…

Workshop Offer Still Available
At least for four more days… I wanted to repeat this here to make sure everyone has a chance at this if you want workshops coming up. For exactly one week, until November 16th, you can get two regular workshops and two classic workshops for the price of $500. That is exactly the same as it was offered in the Pulphouse Kickstarter. A fun thing this year… If you would like, you can have us print up a nice-looking gift certificate and put it into a nice envelope, with someone’s name on the certificate, and send it to you to give as a gift for another writer for the holiday.…

Starting Challenge Tomorrow
I Am Excited… It has been a while since I have been this excited about a challenge. And focused on it, which I will need to be over an entire year. Writing/publishing my age. 67 books. This just may be one of the crazier things I have ever tried. I figured out that to do this I will need to write just about 1.2 million words of new and original fiction. Over Pulp Speed Two, basically, for the entire year. For those of you with math issues, that is over 3,250 words per day without missing a day, 365 days a year. Well, I will miss, but luckily I will…

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…
