About Starship Farragut "Conspiracy of Innocence"
While on a mission to a strange new world, Captain Carter and crew face the ultimate challenge as a close friend gives that last full measure of devotion to save the others. Trapped in a world below the surface of a dying planet, the inhabitants share a secret which could change the galaxy forever. While Captain Carter and the crew grieve, a threat emerges which could mean the end of the Farragut.

This was a lot of fun to write and the cast and crew did a fantastic job bringing it to life.
I hope you enjoy the show.

BOBBY NASH INTERVIEWED BY THE INDIE WRITER'S GUIDE

I did a short interview with The Indie Writer's Guide a few months back. Somehow I missed that this one had already gone live. You can give it a read here.

I was very happy to talk about working for indie publishers. The Indies have been very good to me in my writing career and I am honored to be part of the Indie writing community.

THROWBACK THURSDAY!

One of the great things about social media is the special events that get created. One of the popular ones going around these days is Throwback Thursday, which is usually accompanied by the hashtags: #ThrowbackThursday and #TBT.

I've been sharing Throwback Thursday photos on my Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ pages for a few weeks now and realized that I should also share them here so please enjoy this week's Throwbacks. Thanks for joining me for this short walk down memory lane. Also, if you're not already, please follow me on social media at any of the links above.

Happy Thursday!

Bobby

Time to throwback some Thursday. Blake Wilkie and I at Dragon Con in 2004 promoting Shadow One, a book that sadly never came together. #TBT

Another #ThrowbackThursday to early 2005. My old day job did an article on me and a couple other writers for the company newsletter. Evil Ways was still a couple months away from being released so I used this mock up cover. #TBT

One last #ThrowbackThursday for this week. Not sure when this one was taken, probably around 2004/2005. Promoting the Fuzzy Bunnies From Hell comic books. #TBT

TIME TRAVELING TO COMDEX '83 - BOBBY'S HALT AND CATCH FIRE EXPERIENCE!

Bobby and Cardiff Electric crewI was an extra on episode 9 of AMC's TV series, Halt And Catch Fire. Episode Nine takes place partly at the 1983 Comdex Convention in Las Vegas. The shoot took place in a couple of different location in Atlanta, GA a few months back, before the first episode had aired. It was either late February or early April. I do remember it was chilly outside when I arrived early each morning. My dates are a little fuzzy.

I worked on the shoot for three days and had a fun time, although my feet were killing me at the end of each day after many hours standing and walking on hard surfaces. Oh, the pains of just being there, huh? :) I also spent some time fake drinking, fake smoking, and fake picking up women at the bar. I also had a lot of fake conversations on the con floor and got to fake flirt with the porn stars turned booth babes. Fun times. It was also my first time filming against a green screen, which was a neat experience. The shirt I wore was none to flattering, although it fit the era. It was a bit snug.
My 80's flashback wardrobe
For the most part, I'm blurry and in the background, although there is one scene where the cast walks past me while I'm talking with another convention attendee at the windows. It's a fun moment as it's one of the few in the series where the characters seem to be really happy and smiling.

I had fun and was excited to see myself in the episode.

Thanks to the cast and crew for a wonderful experience and thanks to the casting company that hired me. I had a blast.

Enjoy the photos.
