"Legacy" at Rooted Magazine

Hello, all—

Here’s a link to my essay, “Legacy,” out today at Rooted Magazine, about my maternal grandmother, whose life and stories are at the heart of my novel, That Pinson Girl.

I hope you’ll visit Rooted, read “Legacy,” and enjoy.

While you’re there, go exploring. Editor Lauren Rhoades is curating the best pieces about life in Mississippi and life away, from those of us “born and raised” here who have chosen to stay, to those who have left but still feel the pull of this place, to those who have made Mississippi home by choice. Rooted explores the big landscape of who we are.

As always, thanks for reading!
