Falling Forward
Autumn is my favorite season. The air becomes cool and crisp,
the days shorten and the holidays, which can be a mixed bag of good
and bad, seem to take over our lives.
My fall season is already shaping up to be a busy one. The 20th
anniversary of Atlanta INtown is upon us and, as you read this, I will
be hard at work gathering up photos, stories, old cover images and
corralling contributors for the special issue coming in November.
I’m also excited for you to see the whimsical cover art created by
noted Atlanta artist Kyle Brooks, whose work currently graces Art
on the BeltLine. Along with our usual coverage of arts, culture,
people and places, you will find many articles in the anniversary
issue that look back at the last 20 years and how INtown and the
communities we cover have grown.
The next few months will also mean many nights and weekends
hunkered down at home working on my third novel, Leaving
Paris, which is due out in early 2016 from Sibling Rivalry Press. I
finished the first draft while I was in London last month (the Kate
Bush concerts were spectacular beyond words!) and now the great
rewriting begins. I love shaping scenes and dialogue, so this is my
favorite part of the writing process. Leaving Paris is the final book in
The Venus Trilogy, which includes the already-published Conquering
Venus and Remain In Light.
I’m also headed east on Nov. 7-8 to take part in the Georgia
Literary Festival, which is being held in Augusta this year. I’ll be
reading poetry with some great Intown folks including Theresa
Davis, Megan Sexton and M. Ayodele Heath. The legendary opera
singer Jessye Norman will give the keynote at the event, which is
produced by the Decatur-based Georgia Center for the Book. If
your literary cravings weren’t satiated at the Decatur Book Festival,
consider a weekend trip to Augusta. 03
