Writers Bloc

Texas has produced reams of folks with the write stuff, from Katherine Anne Porter to Mary Karr, J. Frank Dobie to John Phillip Santos. In fact, they're all over the map.

Back Talk

    Rita says: Recently read some of my old TMs that I had saved. Always looking out for new authors I have not read before. Came across an old article by Don Graham about George Sessions Perry and "Hold Autumn in Your Hand." I ordered the book from Amazon and also the movie, "The Southern." I have just found this present article and have written down all the writers and their works. Thanks for the info. (My favorite writer is Larry McMurtry.) Looking back over the old issues made me wonder why I had let my subscription end. Then I remembered it was because the print was so small that it was difficult to read even with my glasses. But with renewed inspiration; I have renewed my subscription. Thanks for the tips! (January 30th, 2009 at 1:52pm)
