    Last Kickstarter Workshops Housekeeping Post…

    All Regular Rewards Are Out… Yesterday I sent out all the codes and information for the Special Workshops and regular workshops that were sold in the Pulphouse Fiction Magazine Kickstarter. And last week a new issue of Pulphouse Fiction Magazine went out to all old and new subscribers. All paper books are sent out and drifting in the mail, so they will be arriving as the mail allows. Tomorrow, all supporters will get the codes to the five Pop-Up writing classes that were in the stretch rewards. So watch for those tomorrow. And then finally, by the end of September, all six of the Pulphouse collections that were stretch rewards…

    A Success!

    Support for a Lot of Writers… That’s what the success of the Pulphouse Fiction Magazine Subscription Drive means. A lot of writer’s stories get published over the next year in six issues of the magazine, and in six different collections as well. In total, over the next year ,we will publish about 180 short stories from top fiction writers. And more readers get to read the writer’s work. Maybe find it for the first time. Another win for the writers. Let me give you just a basic breakdown of costs. Each issue costs around $4,000 in just author costs. Let me repeat that… Just author costs… Sometimes a little more,…

    And We Are Close to Next Stretch Goal! Just $900 away. If we hit that, all backers get another fun book of stories, plus another Pop-Up Workshop for writers. So please help us pass the word. Pulphouse Fiction Magazine Subscription Drive 2021.  We finish at 7pm this evening, WEST COAST TIME.

    Three Updates…

    Three Important Projects Going… I almost need the cats from Kris’s promotion central on Facebook to help with this, but sadly at this time of the night they are all asleep. — First Project, last night I talked about the six new and really fun In-Person and Study Along workshops Kris and I are going to do starting in March 2022 and going until January 2023. And that we also cancelled the Anthology workshop because of Covid. All the details are in the last post. And the six workshops all have lots of spots left as well as the Study Along workshops for all six. In interested in the In-Person…

    Update on Kickstarter Campaign… 7 Days Left…

    Getting Close to 5th Stretch Goal… With seven days left, that means we might hit the 6th Stretch Goal as well. So when we do hit the 5th in a few days, I will add in a 7th Stretch Reward with a new Pulphouse collection of stories and a new Pop-Up class as well. So if anyone has any ideas of a Pop-Up class topic they would love to have Kris and I talk about that I could put in the 7th stretch goal, please send the suggestion in the next day or so. I have a number of fun ideas, but figured this would be a good time to…

    Copyright And Value and Estates

    Yes, I Know… Sounds Boring… But has some real world aspects to it that come clearly to the front with this Kickstarter Campaign for Pulphouse Fiction Magazine. Let me give you two examples. A negative one first, then a very positive one. Kris and I were doing two anthologies for stretch rewards for the last Pulphouse Fiction Magazine campaign two years ago. I was doing Stories from the Original Pulphouse: A Fiction Magazine and Kris was editing Stories from Pulphouse: A Hardback Magazine. (Both are now published.) Seems simple, right? Pick my favorite stories, contact the authors, make them an offer, sign a contract and publish the story in the…

    Great Start!!

    Wow! Just Wow! The Pulphouse Fiction Magazine Subscription Kickstarter got off to a fantastic start. We funded in record time and today while I was out moving a billion boxes of books into storage, the campaign flashed past our second stretch reward and tonight is well on the way to the third. Next couple of days I will do a post here about all the cool stuff in that campaign. Great reading and great stuff for writers as well. But right now I have this very needy little white cat on my lap while I am trying to type. She is holding one of my arms and threatening to bite…
