    Quick Update

    Code Extended… Seems until I reminded people on my blog last night, they did not know about the blog workshop 50% sale. So I have extended to code to be good through late Sunday night instead of tonight. Popular request. Monday or Tuesday’s blog at the bottom gives you the information and the code. For all things on Teachable, not just the fantastic March workshops starting up.

    Wow! A Lot of March Classes Starting

    I Said 12 Classes Starting… But forgot a few of the special workshops from the Kickstarters. The two fantasy start Tuesday for their second session and the science fiction ones start in a week (I will contact you this coming week). And I also did not count the Study Along which is keeping me crazy busy reading as best I can. I am still very slow at that. And fun to see how many people read to the bottom of yesterday’s blog. Just a little Easter Egg, I guess some people call it. Anyway, again here are the workshops that are starting that are available to everyone… These are all…

    Your Favorite?

    Michael La Ronn Does His Favorites… Michael La Ronn, who is a great writer and also has an amazing YouTube channel, decided to do his top ten favorite WMG Workshops and Classes. It is amazing video, fun and well done. Watch it. I have it posted below. Thanks, Michael. He describes some of the classes far, far better than I can because he is coming from the student side of things. But WMG Publishing has over 300 different active workshops, classes, lectures, and extra fun stuff about writing and publishing on Teachable. And more starting up every month. Yes, it is a lot. Any aspect of writing and publishing you…

    LIST OF ALL MARCH WORKSHOPS… Except for one special addition, here are the March workshops that will be starting up. There are some good ones. And the resurrected Classic Workshop this month is Writing with Pulp Speed. It is a regular workshop for just this one month only. And note that four new Collection Classes are starting up and also the new Advanced Craft class. And another note: You really should open your email from me in the Teachable system. Just saying… (grin) And if you don’t get the Teachable emails because you have it turned off, turn it on and then write me. REGULAR WORKSHOPS Class #24… March 7th…

    Almost March

    Fun New Classes Starting In March!! The big one is the nine-week Advanced Character Development class in the advanced series. This will be on the same level as Advanced Pacing. Expect to really stretch yourself. And get better and deeper and richer characters when you are finished. I’m excited about this one. And you can still get all six of the Advanced Classes, since we will make sure there will be a time to take them all again down the road if you missed one or two this year. Go directly to Teachable to look for them. COLLECTION CLASSES… Four different nine-week collection classes also start in March. You write…

    Diving Universe Kickstarter Doing Well!

    Launched at Noon on Tuesday… So as I write this, it is less than two days and it is about to hit the second stretch goal and trigger the new series of workshops that will be on Teachable. To say that Kris and I are excited to teach some basic concepts and tropes of science fiction with the help of Rocket-Fuel Rachel and Space-Cowboy Pete would be an understatement. That is going to be so much fun. And got a hunch those two will be around in different genres and in different forms in different classes. So back the Kickstarter, get Kris’s wonderful new Diving Novel called COURT MARTIAL OF…

    Workshops Sent and Running Pictures

    Fun Day… First off, business…. All the Special Workshops from the Fantasies Collide Kickstarter have been sent out. They are sent to your Kickstarter address and they have links, so check your spam filters and such if you signed up one of the two special workshops in that campaign. If you can’t find them, email me. This afternoon I did the last 5K race before I do the half marathon toward the end of the month. I did not manage to drop the weight I wanted to since last summer, but I am still going to do the half. Running and walking. Today the goal was to do the first…

    Offer For Lifetime Subscriptions Only Two More Days…

    Ends Friday Evening… Once again I am tired tonight, both physical and eyes. Really, really long day at this computer.  So I’m going to remind the lifetime subscribers at WMG Workshops about the half-off sale only for them. So if you buy any of the four lifetime subscriptions on WMG Teachable, we will give you half off on anything on Teachable for the next two days, including other lifetime subscriptions. We no longer do regular sales and haven’t now for months. Just won’t do them anymore I’m afraid, but we do like to give our lifetime subscribers a little something extra at times. This is one of those things. So…
