On the Brink




This past weekend I attended the On the Brink literary conference at Jacksonville State University. Despite a rare snowfall which kept some of the invited authors from getting to Jacksonville, this small conference was well-attended and very enjoyable. The Center for Public Television crew and host Don Noble filmed three Bookmark episodes that will be shown this summer. Bookmark Producer Wendy Reed took this nighttime photo of the JSU campus.
