Tuesday June 9 - Day 7 - Getting Your Story to Readers
Tonight we'll talk about the various distribution methods and how to get folks to actually read your book.
Friday June 5 - Day 5
I guess I should have just been doing reverse messages here. Live and learn. So today you should be essentially done and editting for quality and polishing for content. I crashed hard last night after the 8pm call and didnt get the midnight out. I'll take care of that shortly....and again I lost the 8pm call when we talked about editting and Pats really weird session with deepseek R1. I did a full post on that one below.
Today is a travel day here and setting up for a craft faire that runs into the night today and a very long day tomorrow that will be our biggest show yet and we're both already exhausted and haven't even packed the car yet.
Ill keep looking here and at discord through out the weekend. Don't stress about finishing yet. We can work with partially written stories next week too and each day will still be of huge value to you no matter how you write.
End Friday Day 5 Note.

I'm working on the Class Video now but have posted the materials i promised in Day 1 of the classroom:
I will be watching both frequently, just remember I live in EST timezone and i do sleep occassionally.
Do not Be overwhelmed by what I out in the classroom tonight. Rather than drip feed the docs I gave it all away. Please forgive formatting and spelling errors as these are DRAFT documents and do have some errors in them. Nothing that will change the class, just a little bit more than bargained for. I will keep editting throughout the week, mostly for appearance than anything else.

Michael's Rule of Manuals (A Decades old rule):
Read the prelude and the first chapter completely, learn how the book works. After that LOOK at every page and READ the things that pop out at you or that you are interested in. You will learn more faster this way and have an easier time finding things when you go look for them later.
The good stuff is usually at the back of the book.

Now repeat after me: I am being given the knowledge of a set of tools. It is A set of tools, not THE set of tools. I will be helped in using them, but will learn to use them in the manner thatr works best for me and my process. Michael is not always right and does make mistakes.

Alright having said that much I'm ging to get back to the Day 1 Video
