Mark your calendars! Mountain Wordsmiths will be gathering Thursday, April 22, at 10:30 a.m. on Zoom. The event is sponsored by North Carolina Writers’ Network-West.
Our featured reader this month will be Bob Grove. You don’t want to miss his stories.
Born in Cleveland,
Ohio, Bob now lives in the mountains of North Carolina. He earned his Bachelor
of Arts degree at Kent State University and his Master of Science at Florida
Atlantic University. He has taught courses in English, journalism, and creative
writing as well as the sciences and psychology.
Bob was formerly an
ABC-TV public affairs director and program host, the funder and publisher of Monitoring Times magazine, and is now a
popular reader of his works. A member of the North Carolina Writers’ Network
and an officer with the Ridgeline Literary Alliance, he is the facilitator for
the Cherokee County prose critique group.
Bob has published twenty books and hundreds of articles in sixteen magazines. Most recently, he has
written a mystery novella (Secrets of
Magnolia Manor), his memoir (Misadventures
of an Only Child), a collection of children’s stories (Adventures of Kaylie and Jimmy), some flash fiction including the
gold medal award-winning entry in the 2013 Silver Arts literature competition (The Visitor), and a little poetry.
