Field trip anyone? Let’s take a bus to the Library of Congress and spend the day reading, writing, and thinking in the Main Reading Room! Reading Rock Books can you make this a thing?

Need a book to read this weekend? Hurry over to the Jennie Woolworth Library inside the Bibb Civic Center in White Bluff, Tennessee. They have a great selection of new books as well as great backlist titles.

This is beautiful! I encourage you to take the time to listen. instagram.com/reel/CsoOgbpgD…

I enjoy the kitchen talk.

It’s FRIDAY!! What’s everybody reading this weekend? I’m finishing this “raunchy, hilarious, and unexpectedly sweet” Tom Perrotta and getting prepared for what is sure to be an interesting Reading Rock Books book club discussion.

Totally agree! Anyone who is serious about writing anything should be reading for atleast one hour per day.

I’m excited to announce that I've been accepted to New Politics Academy’s Answering the Call course! Our democracy needs leaders who put community and country over self. I’m eager to explore how I can turn my values into action and stay civically engaged in 2025 and beyond.
