Video Interview
If you have a half hour, this is an interview I did in May with Jody Seay on her Back Page program for Oregon State University. Jody interviews Indie authors in the Pacific Northwest about their books. While the focus of the program was ostensibly We the Enemy, in a wide-ranging chat we touch upon two others—The Vampire Kitty-cat Chronicles and The Summer Boy. Jody is a writer as well, a fellow Texan, and a very sharp woman.
Prices lowered
I’m offering free shipping, a 10% discount, and optional signing for my paperback books, including Flogging the Quill, Crafting a Novel that Sells. This actually puts my prices lower than Amazon’s. Paperbacks and ebooks are at my bookstore.
Workshops a-comin’
On September 22 I’m going to be doing a workshop on Crafting Killer Description and Dialogue with the Write on the River folks in Wenatchee, Washington. This is an interactive writing workshop with at least three writing tasks and critiques during the session.
And on October 7 I’m doing the same workshop at the Write on the Sound Writers’ Conference in Edmonds, Washington. It would be great to see you there. This is my fourth workshop for WOTS, and the first that’s back-to-back with the previous year’s presentation, Crafting a Killer First Page. The Conference has a policy of not repeating presentations within one year, so my workshops have been every other year until now because this is a different topic. I love this conference—it’s well done, and has excellent workshops; I attend all that I can.
Writer Unboxed
I’m privileged to be a regular contributor to the Writer Unboxed website, and will have my monthly post up this coming Thursday, the 19th. I wish I knew what it was going to be about. It’s excellent company to be in, with daily articles on craft and the business by talented authors and others such as uberagent Donald Maass.
