KILLER NASHVILLE

Four members of our chapter attended 2025 Killer Nashville: pictured (l to r): Pamela Hirschler, Susan Bell, and Lynn Slaughter. Also attending, but too sly to be captured on film: Gloria Casale!

Lynn did several panels, and Pam moderated two panels. We hope they will share their experience with us at the next opportunity.

 

 

APPALACHIAN WRITER’S CONFERENCE (BEREA)

Gloria Casale imageGloria Casale and Susan Bell attended this year’s Appalachian Writer’s Conference. It was great fun, especially watching one of our panelists, Gery L. Deer perform Flash Fiction ‘on the fly’ using his manual typewriter from around 1950. Very entertaining. And speaking of Flash Fiction, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention my sister, Whitney Vale, won the 2025 Appy Award for Flash Fiction!

 

 

 

 

Congratulations!
