One of the things I really enjoy in life is meeting my readers in person. This year I had the pleasure of meeting many of you in several of my speaking events and it was great to hang out.

I will be speaking at several cool conferences in 2013. So I hope to meet you at one of them.
If you’re a pastor or a conference host, and you’d like to book me for 2013, go to this page for instructions. Some of my most popular messages are on that page to sample.
Writers & Bloggers Workshop
In January 2012, I began blogging 5 days a week. Not long after, my traffic shot past 4 million pageviews and the blog was ranked #5 out of all Christian blogs on the Web by the premier Blog Ranking Site.
On the book-writing front, I’ve published with Thomas Nelson, Tyndale, David C. Cook, Zondervan, and a few other publishers. And thanks to you (my readers), several of my titles hit bestseller lists.
All that to say that I’ve learned a few things about blogging and writing.
Consequently, I’m toying with an idea that was inspired by the requests of several people. The idea is to have a Writers & Bloggers Workshop. It would be very small. Probably no more than 25 people. I’d share some of my “trade secrets” in writing books and blogging. And everyone would learn from one another. It would last 2 days and it would be highly practical.
Again, I’m toying with the idea. If it happens, I’m thinking it will be in 2013 or possibly 2014.
If you are interested in attending (assuming that we have it), send me a personal message on Facebook. Go to my Facebook page - facebook.com/frank.viola - and click “Message” at the top of the page. (Don’t use that silly Facebook email address because I never check it.)
When you write, just say you’re interested in attending the potential workshop and include your blog url if you have a blog. Contact me about it on Facebook instead of here.
Also: you’ll undoubtedly have to travel to be a part of it. It’s not going to be a tour or anything. 
Greetings, first time commenter here.
I have a question about the recent changes to the blog post.
I subscribe to the blog both through a reader and via email.
The last several posts have required ‘**Click the title of this post at the top to read the rest of the article on the blog. Once you’re on the blog, you may also post a comment at the end if you wish.**
Why the change?
As one who primarily followed the blog on my phone it’s a bummer I can no longer so simply enjoy the blog but have to open up a browser.
Grateful for all of Frank’s writings…bummed about the changes.
Blessings
This is from the Blog Manager:
“We had to make this change because so many people kept ignoring our continued pleas to respond on the blog rather than by clicking “Reply.” There was even a note at the bottom of every post in the Email stating this, yet it was continuously ignored. Frank mentioned it numerous times on blog posts even but nothing changed. Just click on the heading and you will be taken to the entire post on the blog. You can print the blog post out from there, or copy and paste it to a Word document and print it from there. The only want to make a comment is by going to the blog directly, so this should increase interaction as well, since this is one of the goals of this blog. ~ The Blog Manager”
Definitely interested.
Ken: you need to send me a note on Facebook. See the instructions below. Thx.
Great idea Frank!!!
