Write New Stories for Each Pop-Up… There are fourteen Pop-Ups in the series now. List is below. And for a short week or so with each one when it first appeared, anyone who signed up got a chance to write a story from a prompt and send it to me. But once that week was past, the opportunity to write passed. Videos are all still there to learn from, of course. (About 12-15 videos per Pop-Up on each subject.) Right now, #14 How to Make a Living Writing Short Fiction has a story prompt with it that is due in just under two weeks. And you can sign up for…

Nope. Not For Pulphouse Fiction Magazine… I am reading for the Great Challenge. I got behind the last three weeks in reading, so promised myself that among other things this weekend, I would get the pleasure of reading a bunch of short stories. That’s what I am doing tonight. And very excited about the Pulphouse Kickstarter and how well it has done in the first two days. Exciting and gratifying for me and all the great authors who had stories in the first eight issues. Between reading, frighteningly enough, I have been working on a spread sheet for a past Kickstarter. The Make 100 Paperbacks. Finally firing on those and…

First Bundle of Five Lectures Done… It is five of the myths that swirl around creation of words. And this week I will be finishing up the last three lectures in the Roadblocks bundle. I want to do the last two bundles (10 lectures on myths) but not one person has bought a bundle, not one. Lifetime subscribers to the lectures get them, so I will finish the last two bundles for them. And that is the best way to buy these, as I have said. So still going forward with them, clearly mostly just for my own entertainment. (grin) And in the Licensing Transition, Kris and I have a…

With Ten Writers… Well, I was number ten, so I guess I had dinner with nine other writers. There were ten of us, total, and then we headed to a brew pub so Kevin and a few others could have a beer. Talking went on to almost midnight. These were all successful writers, indie writers, and fun people. Amazing how many writers we are seeing here in Vegas, and missed a couple last week who came through. Fantastic fun after all the years living a long ways from anywhere. So because of all the fun conversation, I was very late getting to the assignments tonight, but just got them done.…

New Story Bundle Now Live… I’m really proud of this bundle. I love thrillers of all sorts and I got a chance to work with some of the best writers of fast-paced fiction working in all sorts of different genres to put this together. So check it out at Storybundle.com Over the next night or so I’ll give more information about the bundle and the great writers in it. But at Storybundle.com you can read the blog I did about the bundle and putting it together. If you love fast-paced books in just about every genre, this is the bundle for you. Nine novels, one collection. And I have one of…

Sort Of Surprised… We have the woman who runs the international licensing expo coming to the Master Business Class to help us all, and no comments. Not sure what I was expecting, but dead silence, even in private emails, sure wasn’t one of the expectations. No need to comment now. Just found it interesting with all the excitement among so many writers about licensing opportunities. So now off I go to work on more chapters of Trademark for Fiction Writers. Night…
