Hats Off! to Margaret Harrell, whose memoir, Keep This Quiet! My Relationship with Hunter S. Thompson, Milton Klonsky, and Jan Mensaert , has a two-page spread in the new issue of the quarterly UK literary magazine Beat Scene. Keep This Quiet! is also featured in the special issue of Literary Journalism Studies (Spring) to mark the 40th anniversary of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. And "Review: Keep This Quiet - Margaret Harrell" is still on the front page of the highly thought of Hunter Thompson blog, www.totallygonzo.org.

 

Hat's Off!

 

Hats Off! to NCWN Regional Rep Betty Dotson-Lewis (Iredell-Yadkin). The National Library of Scotland is adding three of her nonfiction books to their special collection: Appalachia: Spirit Triumphant, Sago Mine Disaster, and The Sunny Side of Appalachia. Due to their connection to Scottish and Scots-Irish culture and history, the National Library believes they will make "lovely additions to the material (they) hold on the Scots-Irish influence in the United States."
