Ann Hite, author of The Storycatcher, and Karen Spears Zacharias, author of Mother of Rain, appeared at the Smyrna Public Library today.
They drew on the wit and wisdom of characters they have created and presented "A Conversation with Mountain Women".
It was an engaging, and not at all serious, discussion of fun things and more such as... If Mee-Maw was the one you loved nearly better than Jesus, if you are familiar with Black Mountain or Sapelo Island, if you’ve ever been pearling on the river, or stood under the shower of a waterfall in the Smokies, or if you’ve ever had an encounter with a ghost or a Melungeon.
Today's discussion was an amazing opportunity for swapping stories infused with mountain lore.
Refreshments were served, and books were available for sale, courtesy of Book Exchange, Marietta.
