Echoes Across the Blue Ridge


I am holding in my hand for the first time, Echoes Across the Blue Ridge. The stories, essays, and poems are by some impressive people to say the least. Wow! I picked several up at the Blue Ridge book store in Waynesville. They probably guessed I was included in the book by the smile that wouldn't leave me. I thought for a while my face might be frozen with that look. :)

Nancy Simpson, the editor, chose to divide the book into the four seasons and that makes it so easy to read and just wander through.

Echoes is amazing, beginning with the cover that contains a scene somewhere in the Southern Appalachians. I’m still struck by the sheer joy of being published in this impressive anthology.

You are right, Mary. I'm going to get my picture taken with the book, or at least have a photo of the book.
How nice to see your comment, CA. I love that you read my blog and I think of you and my Skywriter friends when I'm not writing. I imagine you waiting. LOL That's a good feeling for someone who writes.:)
