Not too impressed with Survey Gizmo

Friday, February 29th, 2008

With the success story question below, I was also doing a free test of Survey Gizmo before paying to use it–so that we wouldn’t have the problem we had with vote cheating the next time I needed to ask your input on an upcoming course. (It also does polls, but surveys are a better indicator […]

TORNADO Watch?!

Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

You have to be kidding me. We’re under a tornado watch and a thunderstorm watch, we have thunder AND lightning, and the power around here goes out if the gerbil on his treadmill at the power company farts.
If you suddenly don’t hear from me, I’m sitting here in the dark saying every bad word […]

Members-only Sale Updates

Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

If you’re on the Writers’ Updates newsletter and you have questions about or need help with the February Sucks sale, you can ask or post here. I’ll be checking the blog all day. And all day tomorrow. And by putting everything here, some questions might be answered that folks participating while I’m […]

The “Couldn’t Get Wordpress To Let Me In” Responses

Monday, February 4th, 2008

Oh, boy. I’m not putting names on these because they were sent to me privately and not all of them had the “couldn’t get Wordpress to work” comment.
 

 
 
 

SIDE NOTE: I host my weblog myself, on my own site, which means your Wordpress.com ID won’t work here. You need to create an […]

BAD News…Newsletter, Plotting Course, & Upgrades

Friday, January 18th, 2008

POSTING THIS TO THE WRITING DIARY BECAUSE…
the people who need to see the message the MOST are the ones who have stopped receiving their emails.
Aaaargh!
==========================
I’ve discovered that over the past few weeks, fewer and fewer of the e-mails you’ve requested haven’t been delivered. I started getting e-mails from people who were only getting some of […]

A Hang-Up in the Plotting Course

Monday, January 7th, 2008

I know this isn’t going to reach everyone who has signed up for it, but the autoresponder that sends out the plotting course lessons has died an ugly death.
Either today or tomorrow (IF we can get cron working in the new e-mail program), I’ll be sending out an invitation letter to everyone who was on […]

Found My Affiliate Manager

Wednesday, December 5th, 2007

I had a remarkable number of qualified applicants for the position, and I’m delighted to be able to introduce my choice to you: Craig Campbell.
Affiliates will be able to e-mail him directly with questions about getting ads set up, improving conversion rates, coming up with original sales promotions to introduce folks to the good stuff […]

HollyShop Affiliate Manager Position Open

Friday, November 30th, 2007

We’ve been in chaos since Thanksgiving, when my daughter ended up having emergency surgery in the wee hours of the morning. She’s better and home as of today, but I couldn’t focus on anything while I was worried about her. What kind of mom would I have been if I could have?
But I […]

Shop Closed for Two Days

Friday, November 16th, 2007

Just a quick note to let you know that the shop will be closing tonight at midnight EST, and will not reopen until Monday, as close to 9AM as I can make it. During that time, behind the scenes, Margaret will be transferring our fantastic new store software, and I’ll be, for the first […]

The Coupon Has Been Fixed

Wednesday, October 24th, 2007

If you tried to use your coupon earlier and it didn’t work, you can go ahead and order now. It’s fixed.
I apologize. I thoroughly tested the thing before I took it live; I don’t know what I managed to screw up afterward.
