THE WRAP UP-- LOCAL COMIC SHOP DAY!

I had a great time at Dr. No's Comics and Games Superstore in Marietta, GA today for a book signing with my buddy, James Tuck to celebrate Local Comic Shop Day! Thanks to those who braved the rain to join us and to Cliff Biggers for hosting us.

It was fun.

Sorry. No photos because we were chatting quite a bit.

Bobby's Book Review: I Never Meant To Start A Murder Cult and Other Stories by Darrell Z. Grizzle!

Bobby's Book Review: I thoroughly enjoyed my friend Darrell Grizzle's chapbook, "I Never Meant To Start A Murder Cult and Other Stories." I mean, I was sold on the title alone. The 9 stories that make up this book are great tasty nuggets of horror/thriller goodness. Darrell tells some truly spooky tales here that make me want to read more. Highly recommended. 4 Stars.

You too can check out I Never Meant To Start A Murder Cult and Other Stories by Darrell Z. Grizzle HERE. Available in paperback and ebook. You can read it FREE with your Kindle Unlimited subscription too.

“Sometimes half an inch is all that stands between life and death.” After a near fatal encounter while deep undercover in South America, Abraham Snow retires from his work as a government operative and returns to a home he hardly knows, Abraham 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.

SNOW DRIVE BRINGS HOME ANOTHER 5 STAR READER REVIEW!

WE LOVE READER REVIEWS!

A BIG THANK YOU to John Kilgallon for his kind words and nice 5 STAR Amazon review of SNOW DRIVE.

"Third in the Snow series from Bobby Nash, "Snow Drive" is a fast paced action-er with lots of character moments and NASCAR. Did I say NASCAR? Yep. The main plot is to solve sabotage occurring to a racing team at Atlanta Motor Speedway. While the main plot is interesting enough, there are also continuing elements from the earlier two books involving the Ortega cartel. One of the fun parts of the book is the development of Big John Salmon. He's Archer Snow's personal driver and mechanic, best friend to Abraham Snow, the main character. We learn NASCAR was a dream for him, one that crashed and burned when he went to prison for auto theft. Lots of moments as he tries to empathize with Beau Chambers, the bad boy of the Chambers Race Team. Again, a great, fast read and highly recommended. Looking forward to the next Snow adventure!"

Thanks again, John. The kind words are much appreciated.

Now, I need to get that darn SNOW TRAPPED book finished.

THE BIG BAD IS HERE!

Dark Oak Press’s The Big Bad: An Anthology of Evil is now available as a hardcover, paperback, and ebook (Kindle and Nook) at Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Created and edited by authors John G Hartness and Emily Lavin Leverett, The Big Bad Anthology features stories from a host of authors (full list below).

Suggested for Mature Readers, The Big Bad: An Anthology of Evil is 346 pages and contains 30 stories from some fantastically talented authors.

My story in this volume is called “Lowlife.”
When Jack Sebastian walked out of prison there was nothing waiting for him but a long stretch of empty road and a long walk in triple digit temps under a blazing sun. When the old man offered him a ride he dared not refuse. That decision was the start of the longest ride of Jack Sebastian’s life.

Thanks to John and Emily for the opportunity to be part of this collection. I look forward to reading and enjoying all the stories.

Bobby

PRESS RELEASE:

The Big Bad: An Anthology of Evil

Everybody loves bad guys, and these are some of the baddest of them all. Forget the rules. There aren't any heroes. No one is going to save you from the wickedness in the darkness. Monster hunters can easily become the hunted. Twisted perverts can find themselves on the receiving end of their own deviant desires. No matter how big and bad someone or something may be, there is always something bigger and badder just waiting. Even the classics like a dragon, werewolf, or supernatural being can fall victim to something even more evil. Take a peek, if you dare, inside the malevolent world of super-villains, monsters, demons and just plain evil folk. Be careful, what you see there might be disturbingly familiar ...

NOOGA! NOOGA! NOOGA!

So nice to have a restocked convention table again. Also, the return of the dead guy outline.

I spent the weekend at the Con Nooga convention in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

I had a fantastic time at the convention. I would like to take this moment to say a big ol’ thank you to all the great folks who stopped by my table and the panels I was one to say hello. I’d also like to thank Robby Hilliard and his staff for running an absolutely fantastic literary track.

Bobby & the ESO Mikes.

Here was my Con Nooga Panel schedule--
Saturday
11:00AM - Pulp Fiction: The return of the pulps! What defines it as pulp?
NOON - Plotter or Pantser? Using Outlines - Pros and Cons - discussion and workshop
1:00PM - Social Media - Platform: dos and don't for writing
3:00PM - So You Want To Be a Writer?
8:00 PM - What's My Plot? A No Holds-Barred Plot off! Challenge our authors with an idea and see who comes up with the best plot! (The most fun I think I had all weekend)

The only way to travel.

9:00 PM - What makes a Genre a Genre? Elements of different genres

Sunday
12:00 PM - Writing Believable Dialog - discussion and workshop
1:00 PM - Creating Believable Characters - discussion and workshop

All of them were gems and I, along with the other guests had some great conversations on the panels. Speaking of the other guests, I can’t say enough good things about the great folks I got to hang out with this weekend. As always, I had a great time with my Earth station One cohorts, Mike Gordon and Mike and Judy Faber. Plus, my frequent con-neighbor and Ruby Files co-creator, Sean (the love monkey -don’t ask. You had to be there) Taylor, con-daughter Charis Taylor, John Hartness, Andrea Judy, Stephen Zimmer, M. B. Weston, James R. Tuck, Dan Jolley, Shane Berryhill, Ed Crandell, D. A. Lewis, Michael D’ambriosio, D. A. Adams, Lysa Shin, K. S. Daniels, Kimberly Richardson, Andrew Toy, Ben and Tracy Eller, the fabulous Alan Gilbreath (you really had to be there), and I’m sure I’m forgetting some others that I’ll remember after I post this.

Here are a few pictures from the weekend. Please click on them for a larger view.

I’m looking forward to next year’s Con Nooga.

Bobby
