THE AUGUSTA TOY AND COMICS SHOW/JOEFEST 2020 DATE CHANGES...

The Augusta Toy and Comic Show/Joefest 2020 was scheduled for June 27 - 28, 2020 in Augusta, GA at the New Augusta Convention Center. Due to COVID-19 issues, the convention had been rescheduled for Labor Day weekend. I was set to be part of Indies World, but I am already booked elsewhere on that weekend so I will not be there for this year's show. I will return for The Augusta Toy and Comic Show/Joefest 2021.

Stay tuned for details.

BUSY DAY. AN "IN THE WIND" UPDATE!

Busy day. So far today, I have written 3 story pitches, did some admin work, and am now writing the next chapter in my Patreon serialized novella, "In The Wind" which is a crime thriller published a chapter at a time at www.patreon.com/bobbynash. If all goes well, the next chapter will post tonight or tomorrow.

Bobby

About "In The Wind" a Sheriff Tom Myers crime/thriller:
An FBI/US Marshals safe house is attacked. Four agents are dead, two other are in critical condition. The safe house is in flames and the federal witness they were protecting is on the run. Now it's up to Sommersville Sheriff Tom Myers and his deputies to find the missing witness before his criminal pals he was to testify against find him first. It's a race against the clock through undeveloped Sommersville County. Who will find him first?

You can catch up on the story so far at www.patreon.com/bobbynash Subscriptions start as low as $1 a month and helps keep the writing machine running, especially in this rough year where convention revenue has been lost. $5 enrolls you in the ebook of the month club.

CHUCK'S COMIC OF THE DAY BLOG GIVES OPERATION: SILVER MOON A GRADE A REVIEW!

A Big Thank You to Chuck at Chuck's Comic of the Day blog for his kind words and nice review of Operation: Silver Moon. You can read the full review HERE and below.

Physical copies of comics may be difficult to land right now, but luckily we can still order graphic novels or tap into digital comics (and there are signs that the comics shop shutdown may be ending soon. Maybe.) Here's a recent graphic novel that has a lot of fun with some classic horror movie tropes - it's called Operation: Silver Moon.

Set during World War II, it follows a special American agent named Lupus who has a distinct advantage over the Nazis he faces: he's also a werewolf!

This has the wonderful advantage of allowing him to cut loose violently against some truly terrible opponents! And when the bad guys track down a powerful mystical weapon in the Carpathian Mountains, Lupus finds himself squaring off against both Nazis - and a powerful vampire!

The story by Author Bobby Nash provides lots of action and just enough humor (and yes, humanity) to keep the main character likable and relatable.

The art is by Rick Johnson, and there are flashes of brilliance in there as he draws in a style that seems to be influenced by Paul Gulacy. He keeps the action fast and furious and always in motion!

The graphic novel is a fun mix of genres with enough plot twists to keep you on your toes, and all the action you'd expect if you caught this story at a movie theater! Recommended! Grade: A

You can get your very own copy of Operation: Silver Moon HERE. Available in paperback and ebook. Read it FREE with your Kindle Unlimited subscription.

Happy Reading.

WITH SNOW STAR, AUTHOR BOBBY NASH RETURNS TO HIS MYSTERY ROOTS

My latest release, Snow Star is now on sale.

Bobby

April 2, 2020
PRESS RELEASE:

After a year’s absence, author Bobby Nash’s Abraham Snow returns to bookshelves in a brand-new mystery/thriller called SNOW STAR published by BEN Books. You can read and/or watch the author read the opening chapter at www.abrahamsnow.com and below. You can also find the video on YouTube HERE and below.

About Snow Star:
To the world at large, Miranda Shake is a big star best known for her work on the long-running television series, The Adventures of Amazing Woman. But Abraham Snow knew her by another name, Melanie Shaw. Before the fame, they were childhood friends. After school, Snow enlisted, leaving his life, family, and friends behind. Melanie went off to Hollywood, changed her name, and became a star.

Now, reconnected after so many years, Snow has fallen for her once again. For the first time, in a long time, he’s happy.

When Miranda Shake is found dead on New Year’s morning, having apparently jumped from the roof of her condo while wearing her TV superhero costume, everyone is quick to call it suicide, another troubled star taking her own life.

Everyone except Abraham Snow.Snow is convinced that his friend was murdered and sets out to find out who did it and why, much to the irritation of Atlanta Homicide Detective, Robert Trent, who does not like private investigators butting into his cases.

SNOW STAR is the fifth book in the continuing adventures of Abraham Snow.

SNOW STAR is available for purchase at the following retailers:

BEN Books Store (autographed paperback)

“This story is one I’ve been wanting to tell for thirty years,” says Nash of the story. “I love a good mystery and in 1989, I wrote ‘Who Killed Amazing Woman?’ and knew I would have to tell that story one day. I just needed the right protagonist to solve it. The story was just waiting for Abraham Snow.” 

Abraham Snow’s adventures are chronicled in Snow Falls, Snow Storm, Snow Drive, Snow Trapped, Snow Series 1, Vol. 1, and now SNOW STAR published by BEN Books and Paul Bishop Presents: Disorderly Conduct (featuring Snow Flies) from Wolfpack Publishing. Snow’s adventures are available in paperback, ebook, audio book, and hardcover (series collections).

Abraham Snow will return Summer 2020 with SNOW DOWN, the 6th book in the series and the end of series 1. SNOW Series 1, Vol. 2 will follow soon after. SNOW series 2 will debut Winter 2020.

SNOW STAR EXCERPT:

How could things go so wrong so fast?

Three hours ago, Miranda Shake had kissed her best friend, the only guy she knew that never tried to take advantage of her. They had been friends for over twenty years. She loved him and felt confident that he had similar feelings for her. Of course, neither of them would ever be the first to admit it, which left them idling in neutral.

Except that one time.

It seemed so long ago now. Almost like a faded memory. Sometimes she wondered if it had been real or if it was just two people lost in a moment. Either way, it was a precious memory.

With him, she could be Melanie Shaw, the name her parents had given her and the one she used when her friend first met her back at Sommersville High School all those years ago when she had been ashamed of the freckles that dotted her face, the same freckles that today were often referred to as sexy. Sometimes she missed plain ol’ Melanie Shaw. It wasn’t always easy to be Miranda Shake, TV and movie star, in a world that was constantly tugging at her.

She had invited her friend to a New Year’s Eve bash atop a swanky downtown Atlanta hotel. He had resisted at first, but she was hard to say no to when she wanted. The party was a who’s who of the industry elite, actors and celebrities, movers and shakers, money makers and money grabbers. This was more her world that his, but she was over the moon when he agreed to be her date for the evening. He seemed only marginally uncomfortable as she worked the room, flashing that million-dollar smile that had melted so many hearts over the years.

At midnight, as fireworks exploded overhead, she kissed him.

It was long, hard, and as passionate a kiss as she had ever planted on anyone.

He didn’t complain.

She didn’t want the night to end.

When the party started to die down an hour later, she threw caution to the wind and invited him to stay the night. Her condo was close by and she promised that together they would kick the New Year off in style, make it a night to remember. A night of passion with the beautiful Miranda Shake was an invitation few

men would be able to refuse.

When he declined, she was surprised, then angry, then eventually, understanding. He had a prior commitment the next morning and needed rest. Work, he said. As he explained the situation, she understood, but was disappointed. She had longed to spend the night together. Any other man, she might not have believed, assuming the worst, but she had never known him to lie to her before. There was no reason to think he would now.

“Some other time,” he said before he kissed her goodnight.

“How about tomorrow?”

He smiled. “I’ll call you when I’m done. Dinner?”

“That would be a good start,” she said, a little too flirty. She chided herself. There was no need for that with him. She knew that he liked her. The old seduction tricks weren’t necessary.

He had offered to drop her at her condo on the way, but she decided to spend a little more time at the party with the stragglers.

And she needed another drink.

Maybe a couple more.

She knew better, of course. Miranda Shake had a problem, one well documented in the tabloids and on tabloid TV over the years. She did not know how to say no to another drink. As a young starlet, rocketed to stardom early in her career thanks to a lucky break on a TV series that hit big followed by a role in a movie that garnered her an Academy Award nomination one year and another that saw her take home the fabled trophy the next, Miranda Shake became popular fast. For a time, she was America’s sweetheart.

Everyone loved her. She was a star.

They also loved to buy her drinks.

Later came the pills.

A lot of miles had come and gone since then and she had kicked the pill habit, but alcohol was the demon that would not leave her alone. Not for the first time, she cursed the demon that was substance abuse. She knew many who called it a disease, but Miranda didn’t buy it. She knew the monster was real. A disease could be cured. The monster, her demon, would never die. All she could do was lock it away, if only for a short time.

No matter how strong the cage, her monster always escaped.

She tried to fight it, she did, sometimes she was even able to walk away from it if her guard was up, but when the monster saw weakness, it struck.

Though he did not mean to be, her old friend, Abraham Snow was a weakness.

When he left her, the monster saw it’s opening--

--and pounced.

When her guard was sufficiently lowered, the vultures circled as they usually did, preying on her moment of weakness. One drink led to a second, which became a third, then fourth, and then she wasn’t paying attention to where the drinks were coming from. As she knocked back the drinks, Miranda Shake was once again lost down the old, familiar rabbit-hole, curiouser and curiouser.

Things get blurry after that.

BOBBY NASH READS 85 NORTH AND SHARES SNOW STAR COVER REVEAL!

I had a rather productive Tuesday. I spent most of the day working on SNOW STAR, first taking care of edits and then getting started on the production side of things, including layout, interior design, ad creation, and designing the cover. Tomorrow, I'll finish up the essay on creating this story, including solving a mystery thirty years in the making, and then it should be about ready to upload and out to the masses this week. Fingers crossed it all flows smoothly.

Here's a sneak peek at the wraparound cover. I will also be posting it at www.abrahamsnow.com. 

Written by Bobby Nash.

Published by BEN Books.

I also spent some time promoting the new Indie Authors Read site, which I am thrilled to be part of at www.indieauthorsread.com where you can see video of me reading a story from my 85 North collection published by Falstaff Books.

Time to push away for the night, I think.

Stay safe and stay focused, my friends.
