The third group of contributors includes Terry Barr, Stephanie Rose Bird, Michael Hettich,  Karen Luke Jackson, Rora M. Kellis, Van Newell, CE Martin, Karren Pell, Nils Skudra, Robert Stewart, Jack Wallace, and Shannon Yarbrough.

Editor Foster Dickson is proud to offer another eclectic batch of essays that center on beliefs, myths, and narratives in the modern South.

Writers who are interested in adding their own voices to the anthology should read the submission guidelines to find out how to submit.
