THE THINGS WE FIND ONLINE...

I’ve run across some weird things I worked on being resold, but today I ran across this piece on ebay. It was a page cut out of a magazine. A pin-up Jeff Austin & I drew for something Jack Kirby related. I remember the piece, but not where it appeared. Most likely in the 90's. Yeah. It’s been that long. :)

It’s on ebay (not sold by me) if you’re interested. I’m sharing because I thought it was funny.

KOLCHAK: THE NIGHT STALKER 'ERAS'

A short story anthology through Carl Kolchak's life.

Published by Monstrous Books

Carl Kolchak has faced more than his share of monsters throughout his infamous career. Now, Monstrous Books presents 13 short stories chronicling the intrepid reporter's exploits from his time in World War II until his semi-retirement in the 1990s. Kolchak's luck runs out during World War II. Devils in the outfield stir up trouble in the '50s. A road trip with editor Tony Vincenzo in the '70s takes a turn for the worse. Lovecraftian horrors escape from the beyond in the '80s. A dead cult leader threatens to return in the '90s. The Kolchak Eras print edition features 13 black-and-white illustrations.

The Kolchak Eras anthology, available in paperback through the new Kickstarter campaign (bit.ly/KolchakComics), also has stories from Lisa Morton (L.A. Lizard), Bobby Nash (The Devil Level), David Avallone (On the Road With Carl), Will McDermott (The Black Volga), Owl Goingback (Blood Witch), Mark Rainey (Up From the Underground), Lev Butts (Wolf’s Clothing), Simon Bestwick (The Devil's Chapel), and James Chambers (Summer in Rome).

Bobby's story in this collection is called "The Devil Level" and originally appeared in the Kolchak 50th Anniversary HC edition.

BOBBY NASH RETURNS TO GOINDIENOW'S 21 GRAMS PODCAST LIVE TONIGHT!

The tradition continues tonight!

I hope you'll join me and host Joe Compton LIVE tonight at 8pm ET for GoIndieNow's 21 Grams.

Welcome back to Season 7 of 21 Grams, the show where we sit down with the artists and talk about the heart and soul they put into the art. This season we are going to lean into each of our guests strengths when it comes to storytelling. We begin with the guest who has been on every season with us and the tradition continues as we welcome Crime/Thriller Author, Comic Book Writer, and occasional Actor and Screenwriter Bobby Nash. Bobby's strengths are the richness of the characters he creates and the settings from which they come and go to and from. Whether it's his favorite spy Snow and his gang, Sheriff Myers, Agent Palmer, the enigma Miss Lance, the disgraced Samantha Patterson, and his latest US Marshal William Teague. We explore their worlds and the ideals and how much Bobby gives to them and vice versa.

Please bring your writing, character, and publishing questions.

Join us LIVE tonight right HERE!

Thanks.

THE WRAP UP-- GA MOUNTAIN CHARITY COMIC CON!

TARDIS. The only way to travel.

I had a great time at the Ga Mountain Charity Comic Con. The event was held on Friday, October 23rd (evening) and Saturday, October 24th (all day) in Jasper, GA. A small show held in a local college, it boasted some great guests and we were blessed with gorgeous weather that made for a wonderful day for a ride in the country.

My buddy, Mike Gordon and I rode up together and shared a table. We both sold some books and did some panels. It was a good event with a small, but enthusiastic crowd. A good time was had. A few of the photos are courtesy of Mike.

I received a couple of cool items. A post it note praising my books and a Approved by The Comic Code Authority sticker handed out ironically by a young lady cosplaying Frederick Wertheim (also ironically).

You can learn more about the event at https://gamountaincharitycomiccon.com

Here are some photos from the event.

THE WRAP UP-- GAINESVILLE LIBRARY AUTHOR FAIR!

  

Happy Saturday!

I had a fun time at the Hall County Library Author Fair today in Gainesville, GA. It was held at the Gainesville Public Library on the Square from 10:30am - 2pm and boasted a nice array of authors. It was fun catching up with some friends and meeting some new people as well. I had a good time. Attendance was fairly lite, but fun was had. I also took advantage of the slow times to do a little writing on my tablet. I got a good chunk of a chapter down.

A good, productive day.

Here are a few photos from the event.

HERE'S YOUR SIGN!

I saw these signs at the dollar store when I bought office supplies (an indie writer has to be a frugal writer, after all) and thought they were good writing reminders so now I'm looking for a place to hang them in my office. Even H.E.R.B.I.E. the Muses were impressed with this purchase.

A good reminder.

WE LOVE READER REVIEWS! 4 STARS FOR BECKY BOOKS' KNOCKS AND HOWLS!

We Love Reader Reviews! Big thanks to Grey for the 4 star Amazon Review of Knocks and Howls: A Bigfoot Fiction Anthology. He liked some stories, some not so much, but I appreciate him taking the time to write a review. My story classified as "A little weird but hey, that's what we're here for, right?" which I absolutely take pride in. Published by Becky Books. Read the full review and grab your own copy today HERE.

Decent little anthology for cryptid lovers (just skip story 10)

Overall: 3.5/5*

1) Regions of Fancy by Josh Reynolds - 5/5 - Pretty good. Solid Start. Spooky. Enjoy the use of historical fiction.

2) An Unseen World by Matthew Kresal - 4/5 - A little hokey and definitely unbelievable but fun.

3) Legacy by Christopher Ryan - 1/5 - Dumb AF. If you enjoy reading about dumb stuff then this might be for you. I feel a little bad giving it a 1 but I can't give it a 2 because that would put it on par with story #9, which I at least read all of and still enjoyed despite also being very boring.

4) Leave No Trace by Forrest C. Helvie - 4/5 - Can't remember this one so probably mid

5) Cargo by George Ebey - 3/5 - Predictable and gives "Tom Cruise would star in the crappy movie" vibes but fun

6) Scars by Bobby Nash - 4/5 - A little weird but hey, that's what we're here for, right?

7) Like and Subscribe by Mary Fan - 3/5 - I like that they tried to use social media and young folks but the characters were cringey. I would have never liked OR subscribed to either channel.

8) Crystal Mayhem by John C. Bruening - 3.5/5 - A little more horror and violent than some of the rest of these. Decent enough.

9) The Storyteller's Final Lesson by John Allen Small - 2.5/5 - It was okay, just boring and written like someone in the 6th grade wrote it. Uses a lot of words to say nothing.

10) Suicide Squatch by Eric M. Esquivel - 0/5 - If I'm remembering correctly, this started out... okayish, but rapidly descended into misogynist sounding BS and pissed me off beyond belief. I can't, in good conscience, recommend anyone ever read this one.

11) Enkidu by Josh Pritchett - 5/5 - I loved it. Based on this story alone, I might look up other things they've written!

12) The Last Bigfoot Story by Jim Beard - 5/5 - Excellent storytelling. I was very intrigued. I was left with questions, which normally annoys me, but this was less annoying in its lack of answers.

(*Total ratings = 40/60 which is about 3.3333, but rounded up. If I ignore the story with 0 stars, then it's 40/55 at 3.6363, which would only put it at 3.5 or 3.75, so it doesn't massively change the overall rating. If you were wondering.)
