KNOW-IT-ALLS TELLING STORIES: WRITING OMNISCIENT NARRATORS AT SEAN TAYLOR'S BLOG!

I joined Sean Taylor's Writer's Roundtable this week at his Bad Girls, Good Guys, and Two-Fisted Action blog.

Know-It-Alls Telling Stories: Writers on Omniscient Narrators.
For this week's writers roundtable, let's look at the Omniscient Narrator. For years, it was the standard, but now it's fallen out of vogue for Third Person Limited. But why? And should we writerly types be ready to re-embrace this ol' standard? Get all the answers here.

Thanks for inviting me to join the fun, Sean.

5 QUICK WAYS TO HELP YOUR FAVORITE AUTHOR!

One of the questions I get asked often at conventions and appearances is "How can I (or we) help you?" First off, being at the con or event and stopping by my table is always a good start so they are already off to a good start. Last night, I ran across the image above and liked it so I thought I would share. Sadly, I do not know who created it to give them credit, but there is a web address at the bottom.

I thought I would take a look at each step.

Note: these are just some of my thoughts I jotted down. They are not the end all and be all of what works or doesn't, but I am always open to hearing ideas. Got a good way to spread the word, please feel free to share it in the comments below.

Buy their books seems like a no-brainer, but you'd be surprised how often those who ask the question don't actually buy a book. Yeah, it's a head-scratcher for me too. If you see an author at a convention or signing, unless they are a big name author, they most likely purchased the books from their publisher, usually at a discount, and they make a couple bucks off of the sale. Buying a copy not only makes the author feel good that their book(s) is going home with a reader, but it helps pay for lunch or their gas to and from the event or the table cost at a convention.

Review their books is a biggie. No matter where you bought the book, leaving a review at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Books-A- Million, wherever you like, or at each, is like gold. Word of mouth sells books. I'm more willing to try a book from an author I'm not familiar with if a friend tells me the book is a good read. Reviews are always appreciated, even if you don't like the book. The more reviews on a site like Amazon, for example, means more promotion placement on that site. If you liked ____, then you'll like _____. Reviews help make that happen.

Follow them and share on social media is a good, quick, and easy way to spread the word. I am very lucky to have a small group on social media that shares my posts to their friends. It takes seconds, but the impact could be fantastic and has the potential to gain the author new readers. I try to promote books from writers I know or movies from actors and directors I know. Indie creators generally don't have a large (or any in some cases) budget so social media is a good avenue to spread the word about my projects, even those that are still in production to hopefully build buzz. Supporting Patreon, Kickstarter, and GoFundMe projects is also a good social media way to help out if that's of interest to you. Also, if you take photos at a con, on a panel, at a writer's conference, or book signing, tag the creators. It's a good bet they will then share that photo and promote you. It's the circle of social media.

Recommend them. Remember what I said about word of mouth? It's a powerful marketing tool. If you follow me on social media (I'm on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Google+, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Patreon, Amazon, and GoodReads. Please stop by and visit.) you've no doubt seen the "Promote what you love instead of bashing what you hate" post I do from time to time. That is what this part id all about. If you read a book, watch a movie, or have a favorite TV show, play, or band, then tell the world about it. I'd much rather see posts talking about how much you love musicals, which are not my thing, than seeing your post about how you hate Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (for example) and only watched two episodes and can't believe it's still on the air. You don't like it. I get it. That's fine. I do like it, so I will skip your posts. Plus, there is already a lot of hate and negativity going around about life, politics, healthcare, jobs, religion, war, and on and on. Do we really need to add more hate for something that we find entertaining? Let's be positive. Tell me what you love. Who knows, I might love it too.

Offer to help. This takes us back to the beginning of this blog post and since I started writing this, I have added a few ways that anyone can help their favorite authors. We'll start with the two on the infographic above. Approach a library or bookstore on the author's behalf. This one is simple. Next time you're there, ask if they have any books by Bobby Nash (or your favorite author). If not, ask if they have heard of the author or mention a book you enjoy. It may or may not be enough to convince them to put a book on the shelf, but you never know. Bookstores and libraries usually have a local author section. If your author is local, that might help as well. Donate a copy to the library yourself. Libraries often take donations, as do hospitals and places where people spend a lot of time waiting. I have donated some of my books that way. I don't know if they lead to sales or not, but you never know.

All of this is a crap shoot, really. There's no tried and true method to get people to read our books. If there was, that would be great, but no. Word of mouth is still the best way to get someone to notice my books. To all of you who have helped spread the word, you have my sincerest thanks.

As always, I appreciate all of the help and support.

Thank you.

Bobby

WHEN THE ADVENTURE ENDS... WISHING PELLUCIDAR A FOND FAREWELL!

Jamie Chase's post about the news.

Sadly, it looks as though artist Jamie Chase and I won't be making our return trip to savage Pellucidar. With Dark Horse opting out and offering up a reprint of DC Comics' 1970's Pellucidar strip (a great read) and American Mythology's announcement of a new Pellucidar comic (I wish them nothing but the best), we've accepted that our Edgar Rice Burroughs' At The Earth's Core graphic novel was a one and done.

As sad as it is that we won't be able to continue onward with David, Dian, and Abner on their adventures, working on this project has left me with fond memories and great experiences as well as a great friendship with Jamie Chase, who I hope to work with again down the road, and a book on my shelf that I am immensely proud to have been part of and thankful for the chance to play in ERB's sandbox.

Jamie shared a few completed pages from Pellucidar on social media that I am also sharing here. These are some of the pages that we had already started working on in preparation for release. I believe we have 15 completed pages so far. Please, enjoy the art from Pellucidar and know that we appreciate all who read the book and especially to those who took the time to leave us reviews and kind words. It means a lot and I am immensely gratified.

If you are interested in picking up our Edgar Rice Burroughs' At The Earth's Core graphic novel, you only have a limited time. Once Dark Horse Comics sells out of the original print run, the book will go out of print and no new copies printed. Your local comic book store or book store can order a copy for you or you can click Read More... below to see links to some on-line retailers as well.

Thanks again and remember to live the adventure.

SNOW FALLS is an adrenaline-filled adventure thriller from award-winning author Bobby Nash and the first in a series of action-packed adventures featuring Abraham Snow and friends.

“Snow Falls is a griping thriller that Bobby Nash delivers in assured strokes of characterization and a driven plot.”

-- Gary Phillips, author of Treacherous: Grifters, Ruffians and Killers

SNOW FALLS
A novella by Bobby Nash

After a near fatal encounter while deep undercover in South America, Abraham Snow retires from his work as a government operative, moving in with his grandfather during his recuperation. Once there, however, Abraham realizes that his grandfather has an ulterior motive: He wants Abraham to join the family business, Snow Security Consulting.

Abraham, however, soon learns that working with his family can be just as treacherous as deep cover work - especially when caught in the crossfire between his father and grandfather. But when an assassination plot against a visiting dignitary puts the entire family at risk, Abraham must use all of his talents and contacts to keep them safe.

SNOW FALLS is the first book in the continuing adventures of Abraham Snow.

“Bobby Nash is my 'go to' guy for thrills and kills on the page, and Snow is why...”

-- Paul Bishop, author of Lie Catchers, Croaker
