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.

The Atlanta Sci-Fi and Fantasy Expo was postponed, but they are keeping the spirit of the event alive by launching the ASFE Virtual Market. Find links and information on guests and vendors from the event. You can see my page at https://www.atlantascifiexpo.com/exhibitors/bobby-nash This write up made my day. I don't think I've ever been called a "perennial fan favorite" before. I like it.

Bobby Nash is a perennial fan favorite and awarding-winning author of novels, comic books, short stories, screenplays, and more! #ASFE #VirtualMarket

Thanks, ASFE.

A big thank you to those who came out to Infinite Realities today for the Indie Publishing Roundtable. It was a small, but enthusiastic group and we had a fun time. A big tip of the hat to Infinite Realities Chris and Jami for having us out and for my pals, Ellie Raine and Sean Taylor for joining me. It's been far too long since we all hung out together.

We'll have to do it again.

Author J.D. Estrada wrote a great recap of the Broadleaf Writers Association's Self-Publishing Seminar that I was part of back on March 16th. He sums up the event very well. Definitely worth a read if you're interested in attending writing events like these in the future. You can read J.D.'s recap HERE.

Thanks again, J.D. It was great chatting with you at the event. I hope to see you at more of them.

I'm back in the office after being away for six days (three at a convention and three working on a film set) and boy did things pile up while I was away. This is the downside to being a one man band. There's no one to pick up my slack. ha! I'm back in the office today, moving slow, but ready to work. I am tired, achy (lots of standing, walking, and running on set), and medicated as I picked up a sweet little sinus infection from being outside in Georgia's crappy high pollen for three days. Trying hard to nip it in the bud so I don't lose my voice as I have a writer's conference on Saturday and a podcast interview on Sunday.

I've been thinking a lot about my writing career of late, which is moving as though it is stuck in quicksand. I guess that means it's sink or swim time so I will be making some changes to how I do things going forward so I can make my business a success. The first casualty of this looks to be conventions. I have been operating at a loss for a couple of years now on conventions. Sales never equal money spent on hotel and travel so, for the foreseeable future, I won't be doing as many Comic Cons and pop culture cons as in the past. There are some that are exceptions to the rule. I will still be at DragonCon, which is the exception to almost every rule. It is its own unique animal. I'll continue to do literary events, smaller one day shows, and the like as the costs attached to them are minimal (I already have some posted on my website), but I have to cool it on the two and three three day shows for a while unless they want to cover my travel/hotel costs, which has happened in the past. It's a shame, as I love the cons, but from a business standpoint, this is what I have to do right now. Plus, this will give me more time at home to write.

Fear not, I am not going anywhere. I plan to keep on writing and putting out books that I hope you will all want to read (please, tell your friends too) and you can still get autographed books from me directly through www.bobbynash.com , www.ben-books.com , or by messaging me directly on social media. I am not hard to find.

Well, I've got six days of backlog to get caught up on so I will sign off for now and get to work.

Thanks for listening.

Bobby
