It's always a thrill to see one of my book covers starting to come together. Jeffrey does amazing work. Look for Dante's Rebirth (book 4 in the series) to premiere this October from Valhalla Books.
Repost Jeffrey Hayes: It’s Work-In-Progress Wednesday! This creepy crawly is from the upcoming Weird West title, “Dante’s Rebirth,” from Valhalla Books. It’s the fourth book in the series by author Bobby Nash, set to release just in time for the spooky season. Get ready for some big eight-legged surprises! Look at that cute little face and those adorable little black eyes.
I have a bit of unpleasant publishing news to share.
Amazon KDP informed me today that there will be changes to royalty rates for print books and color printing costs starting June 10, 2025. They are changing royalty rates for books under $9.99. That means my BEN Books published title under $9.99 will earn zero royalties after this change. As much as I wish I could write books for fun and free, I have to make a few pennies off of them. That means I have to raise the prices on my BEN Books novellas (Snow, Tom Myers, US Marshal Teague (coming soon), Lance Star: Sky Ranger, Secret Agent X, etc.) from $8.99 to $9.99. At this point, ebook prices do not appear to be impacted.
I apologize in advance. I will have prices updated sometime later this month. I have held off on raising prices as long as I could. I wish I could keep them at the price they've been to date.
Until then, if you wish to take advantage of the current price, visit my Amazon Author Page HERE.

In SNOW ISLAND, Snow heads to Hawaii with Archer in tow for a visit with Samson Brooks (former Mother agent) and his brother, Walker Brooks (former CIA), who are now working together as p.i./fugitive recovery consultants. Snow gets caught up in their latest case as another enemy searches for him. Might there be sharks involved? Maybe.
I've often said that Snow is my love letter to old p.i./detective shows of the 70's and 80's. Snow island gives us a two-fer. First, a trip to Hawaii, a staple of 70's and 80's fare. Also, this one could conceivably be considered a backdoor pilot. If the Brooks Brothers are well received, who knows, perhaps they'll get their own book. Not unusual for Bobby Nash and BEN Books. Stay tuned. #TheSummerOfSnow heats up with #FreshSnow!

The first Star Trek Fan Film I wrote for Potemkin Pictures was called "Under Fire" featuring the Hospital Ship Marie Curie caught between two warring factions while trying to render medical aid. You can watch it HERE. In that story, security officer lt. Jackson saves an ambassador's life when a federation embassy is bombed. At the urging of her captain, Jack agreed to study for med school.
Now, five years later, Jackson (now promoted to Commander) and I return in an all-new short film.
But not just any short film. This one was filmed entirely at a sci-fi convention. And, once again, Jackson comes to the aid of an ambassador in trouble.
Veronica Dashiell, Charles Kelso, Randy Landers, and I were all guests at Stellar Fest in Duluth, GA last month. I was asked to pen a short that could be filmed on site, utilizing attendees who were interested in seeing how fan films are made.
These are fun. I enjoy playing in the star Trek universe, even unofficially.
I hope you enjoy it.

An idea about offering serialized chapters for sale piecemeal was floated. Anyone interested in just paying to read serialized novel posts? Let me know your thoughts. $1 a month would be a cheaper option.

We Love Reader Reviews! Big thanks to medal for the kind words and 4 star Amazon review of Cabbit Crossing Publishing's Enchanted Tales & Twisted Lore: Fairy Tales, Folklore, and Fables Reimagined - Volume 1 (The Crossing Genres Anthology Collection). You can read it HERE or below.
"Wildly imaginative and creative! This anthology collection was a delight for me to read! I love fairy tales, folklore, fables, myths...you name it. These short stories of reimagined versions of not only stories I grew up with, but ones I'd never read before, were so creative and imaginative. My favorites: * Dabria's Shadows, by Demi Michelle Schwartz, which was a really cool reimagining of a reaper. * A Baby's Love, by Michael La Ronn, which was a a fun take on changelings in the world of faeries. * The Quiet One, by Francis Fernandez, which told a very unique tale of gods and humans. I especially loved the bonus author notes at the end, where each author explained the inspiration for the story they wrote, as well as their process in pulling it all together. I love learning about a writer’s creative process! My only complaint about this one was that I came across a lot of misspelling and grammatical errors, which detracted from some of the stories for me. Had a little more care been taken in this area, I think I would provide a higher rating, as this is a big pet peeve of mine. I received an advance review copy for free and am leaving this review voluntarily."
