Most people don’t realize that many of their favorite books are written within our walls. The new book by Meagan Church was penned with a little help from our ghosts! #ncwriters #Northcarolina #literaryhalloffame

We HAVE to CARE
Please read and share!
Each time I have sat down to write something since the election, I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I simply cannot get out of my head.

So, I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...

Come to the Weymouth Center on Sunday for the outdoor drama, ‘Strike at the Wind’. Learn about Henry Berry Lowry who was a hero to the Lumbee Tribe. He fought white supremacy during the Civil War and tried to free his people. A timely story.

My new novel has a cover! It'll be in bookstores on April 1st, but is up for preorder now online. My thanks, as always, to everyone who took The Girls in the Stilt House to heart and made this one possible.
