Who Is Your Favorite Appalachian Author?

Who Is Your Favorite Appalachian Author?

There are many benefits to being a part of this guild. Over the years I’ve been a member I have enjoyed seeing how supportive the active members are of each other. Many friendships have been made and I’ve learned a lot from the presentations and workshops that have carried over into my own writing.

Our guild and community has continued to grow over the past few years despite the setback that we all experienced in 2020 and beyond. It shows how a bond can form among writers and that is absolutely heartwarming. We often collectively accept challenges such as NaNoWriMo or submitting our works for anthologies. Since the summer months are upon us and many of us take a good book along with us on our vacations, it is a great time to ask this question.

Who is your favorite Appalachian author? I’d like to invite our members in a fun exercise to support our mission. Pick a book by one of our guild members and leave a comment and rank on Amazon for them. I’ll be glad to be the first to go online and buy a book from an author in our guild that I have not read yet. After I finish the book, I’ll rank and comment as a part of my support for the mission of this guild. I invite all of our members to do the same.
​
If you have a few favorite authors, share it with your friends on social media. If you are reading this, you might be someone’s favorite Appalachian writer. Congratulations!!

I just bought a Kindle book from one of our authors to read and review on Amazon. Looking forward to reading it!

I think this is a great idea. There are several books that I'd like to read, but I haven't selected a particular one as of now. I've read most of Linda Hoagland's books and find her to be an excellent short story writer and, of course, she is very "snoopy" with her Mystery series. Then, of course, there is "Daily Devotions" by Victoria Fletcher which has been read, reread, and shipped to many states as gifts for others to enjoy.
