Brantley County native Cherry Dawn Langley Chambers, a Southern author of eight published works with six novels, has released her latest work — Quill & Feathers.
The novel, with the setting primarily in Brantley County, was released this past September.
“My stories take place in real locations and contain actual occurrences,” said Chambers. “I think readers enjoy reading about a place or an event they recognize. I appreciate when an author incorporates real life into fiction, so I try to do the same.
“Writing is a solitary occupation, but I always enjoy leading workshops, mentoring beginning writers, and offering encouragement where I can. I’m really living my dream.”
Her most recent novel, Quill & Feathers, features a group of aspiring writers who gather regularly at The Gold House in Nahunta to share and collaborate on their work.
Also showcased in this novel is colorful artwork by members of the Brantley County Art Association.
Paperback copies are available at The Gold House and at Creative Corner in Nahunta. Special hardback editions may be ordered through the Creative Corner or from the author via email (brickyard1800@yahoo. com).
After retiring from teaching, the college English instructor began to pursue her desire to write and travel. Since 2016, she has averaged publication of a book each year, the last six are novels featuring a Brantley County setting.
