On the Same Page

Ashe County has a total of 25,700 people, so it is surprising that they have a literary festival each year where they celebrate North Carolina writers.  It began three years ago when they celebratied the remodeled library.  This year the  community read is Big Fish: A novel of mythic proportions by Daniel Wallace.  There will be writing workshops, discussions, luncheons, informal chats and readings with 8 different authors, and the showing of the movie Big Fish.
