SUMMARY:An Evening with Novelist Carla Damron\, Author of The Weird Girl
DESCRIPTION:The nonprofit Pat Conroy Literary Center will host an evening with award-winning novelist Carla Damron\, author of The Weird Girl\, on Tuesday\, October 28\, at 5:00 p.m.\, at the Conroy Center (601 Bladen St.\, Beaufort).

Seating is limited; please call in advance to reserve: 843-379-7025. \nABOUT THE WEIRD GIRL“A riveting read that will fill you with outrage and hope.”—Catherine Matthews\, author of Releasing the Reins \nAward-winning social worker turned award-winning novelist Carla Damron writes crime fiction to make a difference—humanistic cautionary tales populated by believably engaging characters confronting real-world dilemmas.  \nThe Weird Girl heralds the return of Georgia Thayer\, the social worker protagonist of Damron’s 2022 novel The Orchid Tattoo\, winner of the PenCraft Award for Literary Excellence. Georgia has spent her career fighting for the vulnerable\, but nothing could prepare her for being a foster mom to Tessa—a teenager haunted by her traumatic past. Determined to give her a normal life\, Georgia’s hopes are crushed when a neighborhood party spirals into disaster\, leaving one girl fighting for her life and another who vanishes without a trace. \nAs Georgia undertakes a frantic search for the missing girl\, she uncovers a dangerous fentanyl trade that snakes from hospital emergency rooms to high school hallways to the darkest corners of her city. She is up against a charismatic candidate for attorney general and a ruthless drug kingpin\, two powerful men willing to use lethal means to bury their secrets. \nWith her chosen family threatened\, her faith in herself shaken\, and an unexpected ally emerging from the shadow\, Georgia’s efforts to save one girl puts her own in danger. The clock is ticking. The truth is deadly. And every second lost could mean another life destroyed. \nABOUT THE AUTHORCarla Damron is a fiction writer and social worker. Her first Georgia Thayer novel\, The Orchid Tattoo\, won a 2023 PenCraft Award for Literary Excellence. Damron is also the author of The Stone Necklace\, which winner of the Women’s Fiction Writers Association’s Star Award for best novel\, and of the Caleb Knowles mystery novels: Keeping Silent\, Spider Blue\, and Death in Zooville. Her novels explore social issues like addiction\, homelessness\, mental illness\, and human trafficking.Her short stories have appeared in Fall Lines\, Six Minute Magazine\, Melusine\, In Posse Review\, and other journals. In 2014\, Damron was recognized as the South Carolina Social Worker of the Year\, and in 2017\, she was honored with the Pioneer Award by the University of South Carolina College of Social Work for her advocacy on the state and national levels. She holds a Master in Social Work (USC) and an MFA in creative writing from Queens University. She lives and writes in Columbia\, South Carolina.  \nABOUT THE INTERVIEWERSJonathan Haupt is the executive director of the nonprofit Pat Conroy Literary Center\, the past director of the University of South Carolina Press\, and co-editor of the anthology Our Prince of Scribes: Writers Remember Pat Conroy\, winner of 17 book awards.

SUMMARY:An Evening with Andrew K. Clark\, Author of Where Dark Things Rise\, in Conversation w/ Dana Ridenour
DESCRIPTION:The nonprofit Pat Conroy Literary Center will host an evening with novelist Andrew K. Clark\, author of Where Dark Things Rise\, in conversation with Dana Ridenour\, author of the Lexie Montgomery Series\, on Thursday\, November 6\, at 5:00 p.m.\, at the Conroy Center (601 Bladen St.\, Beaufort). Books will be available for sale and signing. Seating is limited: please reserve in advance to attend this free author event: 843-379-7025. \nABOUT THE NOVELSixteen-year-old Mina is frustrated by Daddy’s drinking\, her mom’s fanatical religious beliefs\, and growing up poor in the Southern Appalachian Mountains. Most of her teachers assume she won’t amount to much despite her 4.0 GPA\, and the country club guys think she’s easy prey. But they don’t know Mina’s dark secret: She can control a magical force of supernatural creatures known as the Shadow Faces. Mina doesn’t want powers. All she wants to do is escape the trailer park for a leafy college campus far away. But when her crush\, Gabe\, is stalked by a shapeshifting preacher/wolf\, Mina learns to use her powers to protect him. Mina soon discovers the same preacher is trafficking teens for a mystical brothel and has kidnapped her best friend\, Erin\, after a failed attempt at conversion therapy. Can Mina use the Shadow Faces to save Erin and the other kids without losing her chance at a normal life? \n“Magical realism and small-town horror intertwine…[and] hums with a satisfying mix of humanity and creepiness. Where Dark Things Rise is ultimately about acceptance\, family (both blood and found)\, and the power of choice. Fans who like some heart in their horror will find plenty of it beating here.”–Publisher’s Weekly \nABOUT THE AUTHORAndrew K. Clark is a writer from Alexander\, North Carolina\, outside of Asheville where he now resides. His debut novel\, Where Dark Things Grow\, was published in 2024. His first full-length collection of poetry\, Jesus in the Trailer\, was short-listed for the Able Muse Book Award. His work has appeared or is forthcoming in UCLA’s Out of Anonymity\, Coffin Bell Journal\, The Journal of American Poetry\, Appalachian Review\, Rappahannock Review\, fall/lines\, The Wrath Bearing Tree and many others. Clark earned his a B.A. in English and M.B.A. from Georgia Southern University\, and an M.F.A. from Converse College.  \nABOUT THE INTERVIEWERDana Ridenour is the award-winning author of the Lexie Montgomery FBI Series: Behind the Mask\, Beyond the Cabin\, and Below the Radar. Ridenour is a retired FBI special agent who spent most of her career as an undercover operative. She now lives and writes in the South Carolina lowcountry.
