Smoky Mountain Storytellers

To celebrate the release of its first anthology book, the Smoky Mountain Storytellers series will continue with its next installment, which will be held at 6 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 21, at Outdoor 76 in downtown Franklin. The event will feature a mix of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry by guest writers Rhonda Browning White, Skip Horack, Andrew Clark, Doug Woodward, Lauren Raye, Bob Scott, Adam Bigelow, and Whitney Waters. “Storytellers came about as a way to gather and enjoy the craft of writing in a live, collective environment. In this day of the digital age, live, in-person performance is not only more valuable and rare, but it’s also becoming a lifeline for creativity,” said series co-founder Hannah McLeod. The reading is free and open to the public. For more information, email [email protected].
