About Snow Falls :
Half an inch is all that stands between life and death.

Abraham Snow’s career ended with a bullet. Left for dead, the undercover operative barely survived an assassin’s bullet. After a long and painful recovery, Snow retires and returns home to Atlanta, Georgia to reconnect with his former life and the people he has not seen in over a decade.

The quiet life is not in the cards for Snow, however.

After thwarting an assassination attempt on a diplomat that endangers his sister, Snow leaps into action to keep his family out of a killer’s crosshairs. Teamed with his grandfather, himself a former government operative, and an old friend turned FBI Agent, Snow is determined to stop the assassin before he or she can take another shot at the target.

Snow Falls is an adrenaline-filled adventure thriller from award-winning author Bobby Nash.

CLACKING AWAY AT THE KEYBOARD...

Not Actual CoverI didn't accomplish a lot during the daylight hours today, but I had a pretty good evening at the keyboard. I added another chapter to the Honey West/Domino Lady novel I'm writing for Moonstone Books (who is having a sale at the moment, BTW, including titles I worked on. 27% off everything in November). I'm making some good progress on that one. 

Now it's time to step away for tonight's Walking Dead and maybe something else from the backlog on my DVR.

Sweet dreams.

WHO ARE YOU?

I had a fantastic time at the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Party last night. Thanks to our friends at TimeGate, The Forgotten Doctor, BritTrack, and my Earth Station One/Earth Station Who podcast cohorts for spearheading the event. There were some fun panels and events then we watched "The Night of The Doctor", "The Five(ish) Doctors Rebooted", and "The Day of The Doctor" with a large audience, which only served to heighten the fun. Kudos to all involved. This was a fun event and I look forward to Christmas.


The photo above is a shot of the Earth Station Who crew last night at the Doctor Who: 50 Years of Adventure event. With The Phantom Troublemaker, Jennifer Hartshorn, Mike Faber (hiding behind the mic), Mike Gordon, and me on the right. Such a fun time.

A TASTE OF HONEY...

Spent some time tonight writing Honey West and doing some plot work for Ghost Gal. Here's a small taste of Honey West's adventure.

#####

Honey West grew impatient.

She hated waiting for anything. That included a table at her favorite Hollywood bistro, at the cinema, or at police headquarters on those rare instances where she needed some information. It didn’t matter where or when, if there was one part of her job that she hated, it was the waiting. So, naturally, the profession she chose was one where sitting around waiting for someone outside of her control to do anything. It frustrated her no end, but she was learning to cope with it.

Or at least she was trying to learn.

Honey West was a private detective and a good one at that. Even though she had only been in charge of H. West Investigations for a short time, already she had begun to make a name for herself as the p.i. to the stars. It was a misnomer, of course. While it was true that she had a couple of clients in her files who might be considered Hollywood royalty, she also had just as many files, if not more, from small businessmen, families, and local politicians. Honey got results. She worked fast and was discreet, the latter of which was usually of the utmost concern of her clients. No one liked having their dirty laundry aired publicly.

It was a sentiment that Honey understood all too well. Her father’s death had brought about all kinds of unwanted attention from the press and those who had known Hank West. At first it had been well-wishes and condolences, but once she made her plans to take the reigns and run H. West Investigations, it turned to questions of competence, threats, intimidation, and condescension. While those tactics might have scared off another her age, Honey West was made of sterner stuff.

Not only did she continue her father’s business, but she thrived in it. Now there were cases around the block, sometimes more than she could handle alone. For that reason, she kept a few freelancers on call for the odd job.

Tonight, she was flying solo.

#####

I didn't accomplish as much as I wanted on the writing front today, but not bad. I have a bit of a headache from too many hours in front of the laptop so I think it's time to push away for the night. We've got a big day ahead of us tomorrow with the Doctor Who 50th  After party with my ESO/ESW cohorts and friends.

Should be a fun time.

Sweet dreams.

Bobby
