Book cover for Grace, Grits and Ghosts: Southern Short Stories
But something is coming. The tea leaves show it. The wind whispers it. The voice of my ancestors confirms it, and I will get ready for it the best I can.

Rachel   Harrison
“It occurred to me then, mouth full of chocolate chip banana mush, that our past is not the truth. It’s warped by time and emotion, inevitably muddied by love and resentment, joy and shame, hope and regret. I couldn’t trust my own memories. Good or bad.”
Rachel Harrison, Black Sheep

Alice Hoffman
“wouldn’t it be more likely that time was the element a spirit would be attached to? That would mean a ghost is an entity that can’t let go of what was and isn’t anymore.”
Alice Hoffman, Skylight Confessions

Janet Fitch
“The rest of us will make compromises, find excuses, someone or something to blame, and hold that over our hearts like a pendant on a chain.”
Janet Fitch, White Oleander

Melissa Cynova
“Again, your words matter. What you say, who you say it to, the emotion that pushes your words out of your mouth—all of this matters. Be mindful.”
Melissa Cynova, Kitchen Table Magic: Pull Up a Chair, Light a Candle & Let's Talk Magic

Kelly Barnhill
“Anger is a funny thing. And it does funny things to us if we keep it inside. I encourage you to consider a question: Who benefits, my dear, when you force yourself to not feel angry?” She tilted her head and looked at me so hard I thought she could see right into my bones. She raised her eyebrows. “Clearly not you.”
Kelly Barnhill, When Women Were Dragons
