Anna Egan Smucker

Here is a photo of me with Harrison County Commissioner Frank Angotti as he reads the proclamation declaring "Anna Egan Smucker Day."  To the right is Phyllis Wilson Moore, literary researcher, author, friend and great supporter of WV authors.  She spearheaded the effort to create West Virginia's first official literary map.  You can see it on the easel on the left side of the photo.
 
Titled "From a Place Called Solid," I'm honored to be one of the 35 authors on the front of the map.   For a closer look, click Literary Map of West Virginia   For more information on it, click First Official Literary Map of W.Va. Created | Fairmont State University

I was so honored to find out that The Harrison County Commission has declared September 10th "Anna Egan Smucker Day". You can see a nice video after clicking the link on this page.
