Join us for a virtual author talk with Rita Sims Quillen on September 16th at 7:00 pm on Google Meet. We’ll be discussing her novel Wayland, the sequel to her earlier novel Hiding Ezra.

Rita Quillen’s novel Hiding Ezra was published in 2014 from Little Creek Books; it was a finalist in the 2005 DANA Awards competition, and a chapter of the novel is included in the new scholarly study of Appalachian dialect just published by the University of Kentucky Press entitled Talking Appalachian.

Rita is also a musician, playing guitar, mandolin, piano, dulcimer, autoharp, bass, and bodhran, and she has recently began writing songs.

She lives and farms on Early Autumn Farm in Scott County, Virginia.
