*Blackberries, Blackberries* "Being country is as much a part of me as my full lips, wide hips, dreadlocks and high cheek bones. There are many Black country folks who have lived and are living in small towns, up hollers and across knobs. They are all over the South-scattered like milk thistle seeds in the wind. The stories in this book are centered in these places." Winner of the 2002 CHAFFIN LITERARY AWARD Paperback: ISBN: 1-902881-34-6 Pages: 184 8˝"x5˝" US$ 15.95 More Info...
*Water Street* "On Water Street, every person has at least two stories to tell. One story that the light of day shines on and the other that lives only in the pitch black of night, the kind of story that a person carries beneath their breastbones for safekeeping." Water Street examines the secret lives of neighbors and friends who live on Water Street in a small town in Kentucky.
