Congratulations to Tipper Pressley whose YouTube channel reached 100,000 subscribers recently.

Estelle Rice, writer and member of NCWN-West and Katie Pressley at Coffee with the Poets in 2007. Katie read a poem that day. Now she is a grown young woman with many talents.

Tipper is a writer who publishes a post on her blog, Blind Pig and the Acorn every day. Her mission is to show the world how wonderful is life in these mountains and to keep the Appalachian way of life alive for generations to come. She researches and uses natives of this area to inform her readers about the old ways of cooking, gardening, playing music, and so many other things. She has a huge following for her blog, but since she went to YouTube and has made it her full-time job, her readers are from all over the world.

Tipper Pressley

Tipper helped me with my first blog and has been a friend for many years.

I watched her twin daughters grow up and now they are known as The Pressley Girls who play guitar and fiddle and sing at events all over our region. 

I am so, so happy for this lovely family and the success they have found doing what they really like to do.

Subscribe to the YouTube channel or check out the Blind Pig and the Acorn. You will be glad you did.

Authors round the south and Rob Neufield

Please take a look at http://www.authorsroundthesouth.org/ and you will be pleased at all this site has to offer. Her ladyship does a grand job of keeping abreast of southern authors and books on the shelves in Independant book stores. Your local bookstore is likely to be listed. See if your book is mentioned.
Read and let me know here, under comments, what you think.


Rob Neufields's interactive site set up with Citizen-Times newspaper is interesting to read. Hopefully, those of us down in the southernmost part of NC will be able to participate and show that WNC is not limited to the Asheville area. Tipper, of Blind Pig and the Acorn, is a member as is Kathryn Stripling Byer. Get on and voice you views.
