Michael Perry and the Long Beds
Start: 7:00 pm
End: 9:00 pm

Author, humorist and songwriter Michael Perry presents an evening of words and music. After opening the show with a passel of heartfelt (and often hilarious) stories drawn from his books (including, "Coop-A Year of Poultry,Pigs and Parenting," "Truck: A Love Story," and "Population 485") Perry will take the stage with his band the Long Beds for a lively performance of original "roughneck folk" songs. Michael's books and CDs will be available for sale and signing.  He will sign at the conclusion of the event. 

The event will take place at St. Cecilia's Theatre at Cotter High School, starting at 7:00pm (doors will open at 6:30pm) and lasting about 2 hours.  Michael will tell us some hillarious stories for about 50 minutes, with a 10 minute intermission, and then the band will perform for an hour.  Michael will autograph books at the end of the performance.

Tickets are $15 each and are VERY LIMITED.  Tickets will be on sale beginning February 22nd here at The Book Shelf.  For more information contact store staff.

Multi-Author Reading from "Green Blade" (Rescheduled for 4/9)
Start: 7:00 pm
End: 8:00 pm

Multiple authors will be here to present their work from the Rural American Writers' Center. The Rural America Writers’ Center of Plainview, Minnesota, states that its mission, in part, is “to provide activities and programs so that writers may develop their individual and collective creative abilities and skills, and to enhance the culture of rural and small town America….” The Center is accomplishing these goals, admirably.   Poetry writing and creative non-fiction classes are offered along with workshops led by established writer/teachers like Gary Holthaus, Ken McCullough, John Rezmerski and Emilio Degrazia.  One of the Centers' "Writer's Helping Writers" workshops was lucky enough to have the late Bill Holm give the keynote speech and "play the black piano".
