    Keeping the Streak…

    Eleven Years Ago I Started This Blog Streak… Somehow, as of the first of August, I will have managed to not miss a night in all those years. Not one. I have no idea how I have managed that. So tonight I am tired, only surviving on 5 hours sleep and a nap, so I am posting this quick note to keep my streak alive. And I will be back here at noon West Coast time to tell you the Pulphouse Fiction Magazine 2023 Subscription Drive Kickstarter is launched. Pulphouse is going monthly.

    Pulphouse Going Monthly

    New Kickstarter Starting Tuesday at Noon! I have been putting some final touches on the Pulphouse Kickstarter campaign and I added in a picture of me and Kris from 1988, the year after we started Pulphouse. Then it dawned on me that I had been involved in or around Pulphouse for 36 years. Of course, Kris and I shut down the company in 1996 and didn’t bring Pulphouse Fiction Magazine back until 2017, but still, that is a long time. You can get you name on the followers page to be notified when the campaign launches. Cick Here… And some great special workshops offered only twice and only through the…

    Coming Up With Titles

    I Love Titles… Anyone who knows me knows I often start stories or novels with just a smashed-together bunch of half titles and fire up writing. But tonight I was coming up with Pulphouse Fiction Magazine anthology titles. Anthologies of stories from the pages of the magazine to use as stretch rewards for the new Pulphouse Fiction Magazine subscription drive Kickstarter we are putting together. Most of you know Pulphouse has been on a short break while I regained my eyesight. It is back, as much as it is coming back, so now Pulphouse can return. But with a nifty change. Pulphouse Fiction Magazine is going monthly. Yup, monthly, meaning…

    Only Four Days Left in Pulphouse Subscription Drive!!!

    Wow, This Has Gone By Quickly!! Pulphouse Fiction Magazine is just like any other magazine in one critical way. We need subscribers to stay alive. And that is what this Kickstarter subscription campaign is all about. Subscribers. Now granted, we sell copies and get subscriptions during the year, but not enough to stay afloat and pay the professional rates to all the authors. As the editor, I don’t take a salary, and the work at WMG Publishing is folded into the overall costs of running the business. But we won’t do a project if the project does not pay professional rates to the authors. Period. So that is what this…
