    Quick Post… Having Site Issues…

    Want to get this here… Went to an Aces’ Game tonight. Their 8th win in a row. Five teams a half game apart from 2nd to 6th. Going to be a wild end of the season. Remember the Adult Back To School sale has started. See yesterdays’ post. Now to see if this will post and keep my streak and challenge alive.

    ADULT BACK TO SCHOOL SALE

    50% Off On Teachable! Anything on WMG Teachable. We are calling it the ADULT BACK TO SCHOOL SALE. Why? Because the television and radios are all going on and on about back to school for kids and college and Kris said to me we should do something for the adults who want to keep learning as well. (Kris is starting back at UNLV next week. Follow all that on her blog and Facebook page.) So great idea and we are going to do it for the adults who want to keep learning publishing and the craft of storytelling. Regular workshops, collections workshops, and advanced craft classes for September will be…

    Other People’s Kickstarter Problems…

    I Was Sent Two Campaigns Today… The owners of the campaigns wanted me to look at putting them here on my blog to promote. A new feature I am doing weekly, but I was clear I would not put up any campaign that I did not support or like. My blog, my rules. Both campaigns I got today were first campaigns and both were ambitious for single books, which is good, unless you try to cram in everything including the kitchen sink. Then information flow in the story is a major problem for backers. Both had that problem. Both had art that any 6th grader could have done better. And…

    A No-Nothing Night…

    Almost Forgot To Do This Blog… Got to keep the streak going for some reason or another. I was working on different workshops tonight, plus some Kickstarter work, and just spaced this along the way. Workshops I am working on are Promotion (nine weeks on Teachable) and another on “Clearing Your Mind of Can’t.” Also putting up some Advanced Craft classes and Regular workshops. All starting first of September. So stay tuned. And Kris took a great photo of me slouched in my big chair, watching the end of the Raiders Game, with a beautiful white cat asleep holding onto my stomach. Was going to put it up but my…

    Kickstarters That I Suggest… New Weekly Feature…

    Yes, Going To Try This… If you are starting a publishing Kickstarter, first off you can send it to me to check for you ahead of time. I will be glad to. Or you can send it to me after you launch. If I think it works, I will list it here. I will say only positive things about any campaign I list. If I think one does not work or has too many problems to list, I won’t even mention it. So send me your campaign by email with the subject line Kickstarter Campaign with a link. And if I don’t mention it, please don’t be angry with me. …

    Some Misc. Updates on Stuff…

    Just Catching Up… Start off, I lost almost nothing (a few assignments is all) with my computer melt-down. I find that amazing, although I do have a lot of new programs to learn and searching for things I knew are there. In other words, my system of six years got blown up as well. And right before a launch of a Kickstarter and in the middle of the Writing Career Camp. I will be back reading for Pulphouse Fiction Magazine for the stories sent to me this spring from the SERIES COLLIDES Kickstarter. I thought I might have lost those, but thankfully I did not. So back reading so I…
