Congratulations to Dr. Will Campbell, TWA’s 2011 Literary Legend, and to poet Bill Brown, who was voted Writer of the Year! We were honored to have Bill read for us at the Chapter 16 stage at Southern Festival of Books in October.
In recognition of his award, Maypop is proud to present five new poems from Bill Brown.
Since 2006, the Tennessee Writers Alliance has been recognizing writers through these two awards. The purpose of the awards, each given annually, is to recognize writers who have contributed to the literary heritage of the state. Learn more about the awards.
