FIRST PLACE!

Halloween is almost here, and, although we are experiencing some cooler temps, there is another type of chill in the air. 

William Faulkner, author of classics such as The Sound and the Fury and Absalom, Absalom!, was also a prolific scary-story teller. The Ghosts of Rowan Oak, recounts the tales he told his niece, Dean Faulkner Wells. This volume is in Special Collections as part of the Patrick Samway, S.J. book collection, and is available to read in both French and English.

You can view these stories in Special Collections and Archives, located on the third floor of the Monroe Library, M-Th 9am-12pm/1pm-4:30pm, and by appointment only on Fridays. The Booth-Bricker Reading Room is also open during these times, and is a great spot for quiet study.

Are you a fan of Sean of the South? Do you like stories that make you laugh - make you cry - make you feel - make you go “That’s right” ? Sean shows us the good side of people. Caution-This Vehicle Makes Frequent Stops for Boiled Peanuts is a collection of his columns and stories. Full of people you’d like to spend time with. There are several with Mother Mary (his mother-in-law) who is currently in hospice. Say a prayer for Sean and Jamie. Tell them we don’t have words but we’re here beside them sharing their pain and grief. #seanofthesouth #cautionthisvehiclemakesfrequentstopsforboiledpeanuts #seandietrich #jamiedietrich #southernwriters #southernhumor #hiltonheadisland #follyfieldbeach #nonfiction #storiesofhope #bookstagram (at Folly Field Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSeuKowLVvM/?utm_medium=tumblr

Up early to work today. Have the rest of my 2019 goals to get etched in as well as my social media calendar for the rest of this year. All with my poor injured finger! #floridawriters #southernwriters #fantasywriters #fantasywritersofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B3jh54iAcl3/?igshid=vdj2ig3f450m
