Susan Lindsley will be signing copies of Susan Myrick of Gone With The Wind: An Autobiographical Biography on Saturday, April 30, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., at the Mary Vinson Memorial Library at North Jefferson Street in Milledgeville.

Sue Myrick’s diaries and her letters to her close friend Margaret Mitchell reveal a Sue that few people knew. Sue also recorded inside information about the cast and crew of GWTW and other Hollywood notables.

Myrick Memories, a series of stories about “the way it was” in Milledgeville and the South in the early 1900s, will also be available, as will Blue Jeans and Pantaloons in Yesterplace, which details life on an antebellum plantation in the 1940s.

     The Milledgeville Living in Retirement Writers Club will be Co-hosting the event with the Library.

SUSAN MYRICK of GONE WITH THE WIND:
An Autobiographical Biography

      Sue’s life is told, from childhood to Hollywood, from high school teacher to award winning journalist, from early courtships to the death of her anticipated husband, 

Her story comes from her own words—her diary, her letters to Margaret Mitchell, her twice-weekly columns that reflected childhood and day to day life.

Sue Myrick’s diaries and her letters to her close friend Margaret Mitchell reveal a Sue that few people knew. Sue also recorded inside information about the cast and crew of GWTW and other Hollywood notables.
Illustrations include many photographs that Sue took on the sets of Gone With The Wind, and scores of Sue herself.

    THE BOTTOM RAIL   Rail Fence  
     
The Bottom Rail placed third in the novel writing contest sponsored by the Dahlonega, Georgia Literary Festival in February 2007.
   
           
             
      Mountain-bred, the Carters move to middle Georgia and set up their moonshining operation which they expand to rustling to supply beef to the war's black market. Murder, ballot box stuffing, revenge, barn burning, and a shotgun wedding lead them up from the bottom rail to the top of the fence.
