The stories that have an even greater need to be told.”

“Writers can come here to find their stories - not only the stories they come here knowing they want to tell, but the stories beneath that. “The Writers’ Colony at Dairy Hollow is an incubator for creative thought,” reads a quote on the organization’s website from author Crescent Dragonwagon, original founder of Dairy Hollow in its former incarnation as a bed and breakfast and internationally renowned restaurant. European-style gourmet meals are served each night, Monday through Friday, and the kitchen is stocked with food and cooking implements so that guests can fend for themselves for the remaining meals. WCDH first opened its doors to writers in 2000 and, today, offers eight private suites designed to provide the quiet surroundings necessary for authors to work. The Carroll County branch of Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library will also be present.

The anthology includes 107 stories, poems, essays and other creative works from 87 different authors. However, says Hannon, donations are always welcome and will support the scholarship fund that helps bring a diverse slate of authors to WCDH, including “emerging writers and marginalized voices.” The Dairy Hollow Echo, an anthology of work from the online literary magazine published four times a year, will be available for purchase. “Everything from fantasy, poetry, history, mystery, anthologies, to entertain, educate and inspire.”Īdmission is free, as is the gift wrapping that will be offered during the event. “There will be something for everybody - books for children, young adults and adults - in a wide range of genres,” she says. Hannon says 19 authors are scheduled to appear, and each will read a 15-minute selection from their book. He has written two books of short stories based on his life in Arkansas: “Out of the Delta” and “Out of the Delta II,” and an art book, “Chimps Having Fun.” Zeek Taylor is one of 19 authors who will be on hand to chat with readers at the Writer’s Colony at Dairy Hollow “Meet the Story Maker” event on Dec.
