The new Southern Writers Magazine goes Hollywood Southern-style to bring you on location with famed filmmaker Alex Kendrick, whose movies with morals mean celluloid that's anything but plastic. Former trial attorney James Scott Bell reveals how he went from law to literary success, and we learn how Ann Tatlock made the move from health care to Christy Award winner. And Lurlene McDaniel, the author of over 70 novels, has inspiring advice for those of us who can only hope for that kind of track record.
         Why has poetry become one of the most important writing art forms? The answers lie in learned essays by Sara M. Robinson and Judge Bill Hopkins. Phyllis Porter Dolislager spells out what you and your writers group will gain from capturing your family histories. Struggling with dialogue? You won't after you pick up talking points from Ron Cooper.
      Get inside the writing minds of multi-published authors Tanya Anne Crosby, Lena Nelson Dooley, Laura Childs and Michael Haskins. Meet Jo-Ann Costa and Wendy Kupfer, whose debut releases are generating more than the usual attention. World traveler Marie Moore takes us on a journey through the process of creating cozy mysteries.
    We'll get the inside scoop on books by Reba White Williams, Robert A. Fiacco, J.S. Beck, and Millie Lee Ledford. Planning on heading to a writers conference this summer? Don't miss Shelly Frome's pointers on proper prepping. We also explore magazine writing with the prolific Angie Kay Dilmore, and visit with Karen Moore, whose 65-book career started in the greeting card industry.
     Lucy Burdette shares five essential rules every writer needs to know, Gerald Gillis provides a pep talk on perseverance, and national speaker, author and editor Beth K. Vogt wraps it all up with an entertaining and inspiring Last Word. Our regulars Edie Melson, Tracy Crump, W. Terry Whalin, Barbara Ragsdale and George Lucas are also on hand with genre-specific wisdom.
       And there's even more waiting for you in the new May/June issue. The future has never been brighter for a writer, and we bring it all to you in Southern Writers, The Author's Magazine. Subscribe now!
