Columbus State University's Carson McCullers Center for Writers and Musicians has an official website at

http://www.mccullerscenter.org

where you'll find the mission statement, fellowship application materials, detailed information about McCullers' life and work, and information about how you can donate to the McCullers Center. This blog, though, is intended to give you a more casual report of day-to-day goings-on at CSU's Carson McCullers Center.

Events of the past few days ...


On Monday night the "Three B's Book Club" met at the McCullers House and enjoyed an evening of lively discussion and refreshments. The members had read Clock Without Hands and had lots to say about the similarities between fictional "Milan" and our real town of Columbus. They had lots to say about other subjects, too. ;-)

Thanks to Laura Walker for arranging the visit.
Wednesday afternoon's event was a reading and discussion by poet Heather Cousins, from Athens. I got so busy listening to Heather that I forgot to take the photo I'd intended to take there in the McCullers House, with folks in attendance and all that -- so I took a photo when we went out to supper afterwards. Here's Heather, on the left, with her good friend and my colleague at CSU, Angela Greene, at the front door of Deorio's.

Thanks, Heather, for a fine reading -- and to Angela, for hookin' us up with Heather.
Thanks to everybody who attended, too, and to my colleague Nick Norwood for coordinating the visit.
