Novelists, Holiday Gifts for You!

December 4, 2014

Hi Friend, 

I love this time of year! Days are shortening in the Northern Hemisphere. I look forward to Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year. That's when I usually hunker down and go quiet, get reflective, and think about my writing goals, plans, and dreams for the next year. But not yet!

I still have my novel to complete. I wrote 45,000 words in November of book 3 in the continuing adventures of Henrietta the Dragon Slayer. I'll be writing "The End" soon. 

Meanwhile, I am busy this month with gifts for you!

  -- Gift #1: As I've done for the last few years, I'll be on the Help Desk, A Holiday Gift for Savvy Authors: Free to members of SavvyAuthors.com, I'll help 20 writers each who are stuck for one reason or another on their manuscript. 

This workshop is taking place in a very cozy virtual room. We’ll be shoulder to shoulder, crammed into it, but it’s the season for closeness, isn’t it? Even if everyone around you is a stranger. There'll be an opening "lesson" offering my sagest advice and then it'll open for questions.

No pickpockets will be allowed in the door but picking each other’s – as well as my – mind to get a better grip on your story or writing career is what this is all about.

As you may know, I teach classes on promotion and marketing, and how blog like a writer, so we can cover marketing too.

  -- And another! Gift #2: I'll be announcing next week a special free teleseminar on publishing for novelists, Tuesday, Dec. 16, 2pm Pacific. Mark your calendars.

What are your burning questions about publishing your novel, whether about self-publishing or traditional publishing? Ezra and I will do our best to cover all your questions, along with our essential tips we've learned while publishing collectively over three dozen books for ourselves and with our clients.

THE HELP DESK: WHAT’S YOUR WRITING PROBLEM?

It’s the holiday time – the season for giving, and we here at Savvy love the giving far more than the receiving. So we've teamed up with some of our most popular and experienced instructors, editors and writing coaches to help make your holiday season brighter and keep your writing on track during the end of the year insanity.

Therefore, for one week, five of our favorite elves will toss out ideas to help 20 writers each who are stuck for one reason or another on their manuscript. And we’ll be doing it ABSOLUTELY FREE.
