THE WRAP UP-- COLUMBUS COMIC AND TOY CON!

I had a great time at the Columbus Comic and Toy Con at the Coca-Cola Space Science Center in Columbus, GA on Sunday, February 25th. Guests for the event included Chris Garrett, Paul Maitland Art, Doug DeTar, and Bobby Nash. My carpool buddy, Michael Gordon also joined me at my table with copies of Earth Station One's Tales of the Station anthologies.

I would like to thank Dutch Cummings for putting on a fun con, my fellow guests and dealers with stuff I spend way too much money on, and everyone who stopped by my table for making today a fun day. To those who stopped by to say hello, it was a pleasure to meet you. To those who bought books, a BIG THANK YOU! I also met a few first time con-goers and it's always nice welcoming them into the fold. I'd also like to thank Molly Simkins for the dragon sketch card she drew for me (photo attached).

It was great being back in Columbus. If you've never been, they hold this convention two times a year and the space science center is also fun to visit.

A little about Earth Station One. ESO is a podcast and also a network of podcasts (20 or so shows on the ESO Network at present, I believe). For 3 years or so, I was one of the co-hosts of the Earth Station One podcast (the mothership, as some of the hosts of the other shows on the network call it). It was a fun show and I had a great time co-hosting with ESO Director Mike Faber and “Howdy” Mike Gordon each week. Unfortunately, real life got in the way, as it does and I had to give up something and my options were podcasting or writing so I stepped away as an official co-host in September of 2015 to concentrate on my writing career. I have popped on the show a few times as a guest since then and I talk to Mike and Mike on a fairly regular basis.

The Earth Station One: Tales of The Station anthology was conceived as a fundraising effort to help bring in a few dollars to help upgrade the network servers, buy new microphones, etc. All stories are written by ESO Broadcast Network hosts or personalities, including some award-winners. I was still a co-host when I wrote my story. Here’s the official synopsis:

EARTH STATION ONE: TALES OF THE STATION
A Sci-Fi Anthology

New Legend Productions is proud to publish Earth Station One: Tales of the Station, an anthology featuring stories about the crew of the ESO Network podcast by Dr. Scott Viguie, Bobby Nash, Van Allen Plexico, Joe Crowe, and Michael Gordon. Introduction by Director Mike Faber. Cover art by Mark Maddox.

If you would like to read more, EARTH STATION ONE: TALES OF THE STATION is available from Amazon in paperback here-- https://www.amazon.com/Earth-Station-One-Tales/dp/1517017807.

You can also find the book in the ESO amazon Store here-- esopodcast.com
At this time, there is not an ebook version available.

The line up

Here are some details on a project I'm part of with some really talented creators that will be available very soon.

The Earth Station One: Tales of the Station anthology was the brainchild of ESO co-host, Mike Gordon. When Mike asked if I would be interested in

participating, I immediately said yes. Somehow, I even let him wrangle me into helping with edits, which is usually not my favorite thing to do, but with the talent he’d lined up, I knew this project was going to be something special, much like the Earth Station One podcast. All profits from the book will be used to help keep The ESO Network of podcasts running.

Over the past few episodes, and the next couple leading up to Dragon Con, the ESO podcast will feature short interviews with the creators who worked on Earth Station One: Tales of the Station beginning with episode 277 with Bobby Nash, episode 278 with Dr. Scott Viguie, episode 279 with Mark Maddox, and new episodes premiering each week. You can hear them all at www.esopodcast.com.

The book will be available in paperback and for the Kindle and available through Amazon, New Legend Productions, The ESO Network, and at conventions where the podcast crew appears. Speaking of which, if you're at Dragon Con this Labor Day weekend in Atlanta, all of the writers will be on hand for a special book release premiere signing on Sunday, September 6th at 2:30 pm in the International Hall South ballroom at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis. Look for it in the Dragon Con App. You won't want to miss this event. It’ll be a fun time.

See you there.
