I'll be interviewing Bob Crawford of @theavettbros April 16 at @CofC for the @postandcourier Charleston Porch Talks series. If you're in town for the concert that night, come see us at noon. Tickets are on sale now & include a signed copy of his new book. postandcourier.com/porch-talks/ev…

I interviewed Rock Hill illustrator @stephencrotts about his career and ongoing work with @malcolmguite on poetic retellings of the Arthurian legends. We also discussed AI, creation and inspiration. You can read my story for the @postandcourier here: postandcourier.com/york-county/ne…

It was a pleasure to meet the great @malcolmguite, hear him read from “Galahad and the Grail” and have a few books signed tonight.

I talked with Bob Crawford, bass player for @theavettbros, about his new book, "America's Founding Son," and 25 years with the band. postandcourier.com/york-county/ne…

The bit on AI is in the last five minutes of their conversation, but the entire interview is fantastic if you have any interest whatsoever in storytelling. youtu.be/JnHTUyZjwiY?si…

“To me, the idea that AI can write is sort of founded on the notion that there is no soul. To me, you write with something of a soul.” — @TomJunod on a recent episode of @david_perell’s “How I Write” podcast

I covered the Buddhist monks’ final South Carolina stop on their “Walk for Peace” yesterday for the @postandcourier postandcourier.com/york-county/ne…

Ole Miss fans that can’t make it for Phoenix, where will you be watching the game from? What city? (Working on a project) Post below please.

VICTORY IS SWEET #hottytoddy x @CFBPlayoff

The biggest football game in Mississippi history! Ole Miss’s first ever playoff game, first 12-win season and Pete Golding’s first game as head coach. No place I’d rather be today than the Vaught. #HottyToddy

In the wake of a violent killing on Charlotte public transit, city leaders approved giving private security wider jurisdiction to enforce the law. A similar plan was first proposed in 2016, according to a report obtained by @PCYorkCounty. postandcourier.com/york-county/ne…

Rock Hill native Michael James started Campus Scenes in 1994, and in the decades since, he’s drawn dozens of iconic college buildings and mascots one dot at a time. Here's my latest story for @PCYorkCounty. postandcourier.com/york-county/ne…

I certainly didn’t expect to hear Seth Avett rapping today, but I’m not the least bit mad about it. open.spotify.com/album/3yMPW4HI…
