A SNOW ISLAND COVER ART SNEAK PEEK!

 

Reposting Jeffrey Hayes:

Today’s WIP Wednesday features a section of the cover for BEN Book’s “Snow Island,” by author Bobby Nash. Much of the adventure takes place on and around—SPOILER ALERT—an island. This part of the illustration will occupy the upper portion of the overall cover and will be positioned behind the ever-present image of Abraham Snow, which is why there is less detail on the right side of the island. Here, you can see stock art inspiration and color references, as well as 3D model assets used to populate the island’s community compound. Admittedly, these final 3D assets are so small that they are barely recognizable in the final art, but that is not their main purpose. They are primarily used to generate shape and color to communicate the scene rather than to precisely depict it. “Snow Island” is scheduled for release later this year. Enjoy and have a great week!

PLAN YOUR NEXT VACATION IN SOMMERSVILLE! PERFECT FOR BEACH READING!

 

When making your summer reading plans, consider a pit stop in Sommersville.

Sommersville, Georgia. It's a sleepy little hamlet. Relaxing farmland, scenic country roads, a world-class state park, and... oh, yeah, murder and mayhem.

We first meet Sommersville in the novel, EVIL WAYS, and then return in the novels DEADLY GAMES! and EVIL INTENT. The SNOW series and TOM MYERS mystery series also call Sommersville home. More to come.

Written by Bobby Nash.

BEN Books makes great beach reading!

Happy reading!

AN UNEXPECTED SURPRISE!

I stopped in a used bookstore today and found an unexpected surprise. There was a copy of Evil Ways, my first published novel, sitting on the shelf. Not autographed so it wasn't purchased from me at an event. This was the original version too. The one with the ugly cover I hated. :)

An odd coincidence. Next month, this book turns 20 years old. An updated version, with a better cover, is still on sale too, at all the usual places.

It was a nice surprise.

5 STARS FOR THE KING OF COMICS!

We Love Reader Reviews! Big thanks to Ben for his kind words and 5 star Amazon review of Jack of All Comics!: A Fan Conversation About the King of Comics! You can read it HERE or below.

"Amazing Jack Kirby essays. I was a Super Powers kid, it took my already deep love for DC Comics into the stratosphere. But it would still be a while before I really knew who Jack Kirby was and even longer before I learned to appreciate him. Once again Jim Beard has brought together an amazing group of writers to discuss a singular subject, in this case, the King, and once again it’s a great, fun time that doesn’t exactly mirror my personal experience but absolutely gets the feeling right. I’ll be seeking out some unread Jack Kirby comics pronto."

Thanks again, Ben.

THE PATREON SERIALIZED NOVELLA "SNOW ISLAND" CONCLUDES! THE FINAL CHAPTER!

 

SNOW ISLAND comes to an end as we get a tease of the next book in the Abraham Snow series, SNOW CHASE. Join us for one last all-new chapter of Snow Island, the serialized novella adventure by Bobby Nash available now. New chapters of Snow Island release weekly on PATREON. Only two chapters left before this exciting action/thriller reached the end. Welcome to #TheSummerOfSnow! Grab some #FreshSnow today!

Read the opening chapter free RIGHT HERE with subsequent weekly-ish chapters for paid members. Go read the opening chapter FREE today then join us for as low as $1 a month and that includes the serialized stories. A Secret Agent X serialized novella will also begin soon. I hope you'll join us on Patreon. It helps me a lot. Thank you.

In SNOW ISLAND, Snow heads to Hawaii with Archer in tow for a visit with Samson Brooks (former Mother agent) and his brother, Walker Brooks (former CIA), who are now working together as p.i./fugitive recovery consultants. Snow gets caught up in their latest case as another enemy searches for him. Might there be sharks involved? Maybe.

I've often said that Snow is my love letter to old p.i./detective shows of the 70's and 80's. Snow island gives us a two-fer. First, a trip to Hawaii, a staple of 70's and 80's fare. Also, this one could conceivably be considered a backdoor pilot. If the Brooks Brothers are well received, who knows, perhaps they'll get their own book. Not unusual for Bobby Nash and BEN Books. Stay tuned.

Learn more about SNOW here!

Next week, a new chapter of Lance Star and The Sky Pirates continues on Patreon. In July, I'll start serializing Captain Science in Oz, a sci-fi/action thriller on Patreon. Stay tuned.

DEADLY GAMES! / DEADLY DEALS! PRODUCTION UPDATE!

The ones out there now will be collector's items, I guess :)

Barring problems, the plan is to release Deadly Games! & Deadly Deals! in hardcover, paperback, and ebook on August 1st!
