A ROCK...

I've been at the desk hard(-ish) at work all day. I just pushed back and realized that, busy though I have been, I've accomplished very little. It's the writing equivalent of "I got a rock" and I hate it when that happens. Time for a dinner break then back to work.

Happy Halloween!

AND AN ANT SHALL LEAD THE WAY...

Tonight's muse.

I added a couple thousand words to the ol' story tonight. Not a bad bit. Speeding toward the finish line now that I've finally pushed through the story problem that was holding me back. A first for me, I actually wrote from the POV of an ant tonight. Odd, but interesting. Time to push away for the evening. A little TV then off to bed. I'm planning to add more to this thing tomorrow.

Sweet dreams.

THE AVENGER DOUBLE FEATURE HARDCOVER NOW ON SALE! PAPERBACK SCHEDULED FOR HALLOWEEN DAY!

THE AVENGER DOUBLE FEATURE is now available in hardcover HERE. Paperback coming soon!

FROM THE CREATORS OF DOC SAVAGE and THE SHADOW comes Two NEW thrillers for the price of one! His family was taken from him by crime, and to make matters worse, no one believed him. He was forced into an insane asylum. He escaped. His facial muscles were paralyzed by the tragedy, so he could press his face into any position to adopt any guise. On that day, The AVENGER was born!

THE AVENGER DOUBLE FEATURE includes two brand new novels in one book by authors Chuck Miller and Bobby Nash.

In Chuck Miller's "FACES OF DEATH," a distraught woman comes to the Richard Benson with a story about the ghost of a vicious mass murderer, he and Nellie Gray find themselves targeted by a ruthless killer. Has the fiend really come from beyond the grave? And will he take the Avenger and Nellie back with him?

In Bobby Nash's "BLACKWATER," we learn that Black Water is a secret worth killing for, a prize worth any price to claim. To most, it is a myth, but for the leaders of the Tartarus Legion, it is an obsession.

Moonstone Books exclusive hardcover is now on sale HERE.

Moonstone is also offering The Avenger Double Feature PROOF. You can find it HERE. I don't know anything beyond the description on the website: One of kind item! The original printing proofs for both sc and hc versions of The Avenger Double Feature. Includes the 2 color full covers, flattened, and the 2 unbound sets of interior pages.

I'll keep you posted on the paperback in store date as soon as I get a confirmation.

TONIGHT, TONIGHT, TONIGHT...

My Friday was pretty busy with non-writing errands and other assorted odd 'n ends, but I did get in some writing time tonight, which was good. Making slow progress on one story (I really don't know why it's not coming together better) and so I split time between that story and another one due after. Since my Creating Comics Workshop was cancelled, I will try to get more words down on Saturday.

Oh, and don't forget to listen to me at 3 pm EST on Saturday for the Muses, Memoirs, & More radio show on Savannah's 107.5FM or live on www.wruu.org. It should be a fun interview.

DAREDEVIL SEASON 3 REVIEW!

Marvel's Daredevil season 3 was absolutely phenomenal. This is, hands down, my favorite season of all the Marvel Netflix shows based on bits and pieces from 'Born Again' and 'Guardian Devil' among other notable DD stories. Strong writing, engaging cast, and powerhouse performances from Charlie Cox and Vincent D'Onofrio. I'm ready to go back and rewatch from season 1. Great stuff. Highly recommended. #Daredevil

Anyone else watch? What are your thoughts?

COMIC BOOK CREATING WORKSHOP 10/27/18 CANCELLED!

I am sad to report that the Creating Comic Books Workshop that was scheduled for Saturday, October 27th at the Decatur Writers Studio has been cancelled. Not enough attendees signed up for the workshop so DWS had to pull the plug. Thanks to those who did sign up and to the Decatur Writers Studio for the opportunity. I'm sorry we won't get to do the workshop. Hopefully, the opportunity will present itself again down the road.

ILLOGICAL.

I mailed out a package today so you know what that means... It's envelope art time!!!! Whee!!!!!! Today's envelope reminds us of the old Vulcan saying, "To Bend this package is illogical." Thank you, Mr. Spock. #startrek #Spock #USPS

Want some envelope art of your own?

There's two ways to get it. You can commission a sketch from me and I will also draw on the envelope or you can order a signed book from me and I'll draw something on the envelope. If any of that sounds interesting to you, reach out to me at bobby@bobbynash.com and we can make it happen.

THE WRAP UP--THE SAVANNAH QUILL SWEETS, TREATS, AND READS FALL FESTIVAL!

I was a guest at The Savannah Quill Sweets, Treats and Reads Fall Festival on October 20, 2018 in Savannah, GA. The convention ran from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. at the Cottonwood Suites in Pooler, Georgia, just one exit up from Savannah.

Adam Messer put on a great event in a nice convention space. Sadly, there wasn't much turnout from people coming to the event, which is a shame because there was a lot of good stuff there to see and do from authors and vendors alike. There were panels as well. I was on a panel at 1 p.m. along with authors Monica Floyd and John Stamp to talk about being an indie writer. It was a fun panel.

I had an amazing time and meet some cool new folks as well as catching up with friends. I hope they will be able to do another Savannah Quill festival. There's a lot of potential here.

I had also planned to head down I-95 about 99 miles to Kingsland, Georgia to tour the Stage 9 sets where Starship Farragut and Star Trek Continues were filmed. I love the sets and was looking forward to spending time visiting. Alas, as happens, things got in the way that kept me away from touring that grand ol' ship again. To those who were able to make it down for the open house, I hope you had a great time. I am loving seeing all of the photos posted.

TODAY'S WRITING...

A Suicide Bomb tease.

Another busy day. Got off to a slow start since I slept in today, which was rather nice after a full day yesterday on the go. It's been a hectic week, last week. We buried a relative and received bad news on another health-wise, which has slowed things down a bit, but I am working to get back on track (I never seem to be able to stay on that track, do I?). I added over 1,000 words to a novella that's almost done and I got the next chapter of my serialized novel, SUICIDE BOMB uploaded and ready for Patreon on Tuesday. If you want to join the Suicide Bomb reader army, join us at www.patreon.com/bobbynash There are multiple tier options available. Now, I think it's time to watch a little TV to wind down then call it a night. Sweet dreams. #amwriting
