The Best of Fuquay Varina Reading Series 2012
Edited by Jan B. Parker, Malaika King Albrecht, Laura Towne, and Nancy Young

Main Street Rag
$5.00, paperback (donation: make checks payable to InterAct. of Wake County)
December, 2012
Anthology
Available from the publisher

The collection has something for everyone. Short fiction explores topics such as the pain of first love, the bond between mother and daughter, the pull between family and commitments, and the banality of a grocery store checkout. Poems run the gamut from wistful meditations through dark humor to angry declamations.

“Putting this collection together was a labor of love,” says Jan B. Parker, co-host of the reading series and an editor for the anthology. “Our writing community is so talented, and this book really shows the spirit of cooperation that infuses our Third Thursdays. And we’re looking forward to topping last year’s donation to InterAct.”

The Fuquay-Varina Reading Series open mic happens the third Thursday of every month, 5:00-8:00 pm at The Lazy Lion Book Store, 601 E. Broad St., in Fuquay-Varina. If you write, come and read. If you read, come and listen. Contact the Lazy Lion at 919-552-9639. Contact host Jan B. Parker at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
