Press Release - November 6, 2006
LRC Scholars on Campus Series Presents “The Writing of Teresa Tope” LEXINGTON, KY (November 6, 2006) – The Bluegrass Community & Technical College’s Learning Resource Center (LRC) presents “The Writing of Teresa Tope” Friday November 10, 2006 in the LRC at the Cooper Campus. “Teresa Tope was born and raised in the tiny town of Oak Hill, which sits at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains in southern Ohio. Her writing has been deeply influenced by place and through the stories told to her by her family. She began her writing career first at freelancing and her first published article appeared in Sweet Baby James, which was a non-fiction personal essay. Shortly after the publication of this piece, she was the featured author in the literary journal, Empire Zine. Her poetry has been published in Wilmington Blues, and Free Zone Quarterly, and she has just recently pursued publication for her fiction. The short story, “Mommy’s Letter”, will be published in December’s issue of Southern Hum. This special edition issue will feature Appalachian writers. Teresa lives in Richmond with her husband and is currently working on a collection of short stories tentatively titled Star Light Star Bright, which are stories that reflect the honest and imaginative thinking of children. She also is working on a play, Sisterhood Revival, which focuses on the unsettled relationship between two sisters.” |
