A new article on “It’s A Southern Thing”

I’m pleased to have a new article about the Lillian E. Smith Center in Clayton, Georgia published on It’s A Southern Thing. The article centers on how Smith’s writing and the Laurel Falls Camp became the modern-day center that has the old camp, under nonprofit leadership, hosting socially conscious writers and artists. I’ve had residencies at the Lillian E. Smith Center twice now, and it’s a wonderful place to get some work done away from ordinary daily pressures.
