If you know of Terry Kay, author of To Dance with the WhiteDog, made into a Hallmark movie, and many other terrific books, you will want
to read this eloquent speech he gave at the Byron Herbert Reece Society annual meeting in June. I am delighted that it was printed on the website since I was
unable to be there.
Terry Kay speaks to me in his books and in this address he
gave to members of the society. I am thrilled to have met him, spoken to him
and had him sign one of his books for me. I even have a photo with him.
He is a novelist, but he understands Reece because they share the same background. They both grew up on a farm in Georgia (as did I) and
their dreams often developed from behind a mule and a plow. Visit this link to read Kay’s entire speech. Come back and let me know what you think. OK?
All should, upon seeing this invitation, read this Terry Kay speech. I have been privileged to meet him and have read a couple of his wonderful books. The thoughts he shares in this speech certainly apply to writers. But they also apply to those whose lives seem to lack the rich pleasures that it presents to us on a daily basis. Thank you Mr. Kay for sharing this.
