Lana McWhorter-Flatt Releases ART FOR COLORING
'Art For Coloring': a potpourri of ideas penned into images to uplift the spirit and ignite artistry. 'Art For Coloring' is the creation of published author, Lana McWhorter-Flatt, who grew up in rural Tennessee, surrounded by farms and fields. She lived with her parents and brother, Mark, and attended Woodlawn Elementary School and later Clarksville High School. Her grandparents lived next door and were a wealth of knowledge and stories. She spent many hours listening to her grandfather's stories and mixing up biscuits and pies with her grandmother. All her grandmother's sisters were poets and writers. She loved listening to Aunt Gabe's spiritual poems, Aunt Bea's funny poems, her grandmother's nature poems, and Aunt Lionel's songs she'd written (and published). Aunt Honora wrote poems too, but excelled at writing short stories. But she was an artist who encouraged her the most. A love of creative writing and poetry was ignited by all these family members. In 1972 she married and moved to Orlando, Florida receiving an AA degree in art. In 1975 she returned to Tennessee and attended Vanderbilt University. She received a BS degree in Special Education. She taught in Nashville public schools for almost 30 years. Now retired, she spends her time volunteering at church and various organizations in Nashville. She continues to substitute teach for the county. She has been a member of Tennessee Art League downtown Nashville, and Madison Art Guild in Madison. When time allows, she attends music jams and quick-draw artist contests around the country. Poetry and songwriting have been a continual interest throughout her life. She has transcribed her father's WWII diary and is hoping to someday publish it.

University Press of Kentucky Releases THE BIRTH OF BOURBON, Photographs by Carol Peachee
Kentucky is home to more barrels of bourbon than people, and ninety-five percent of all of America's native spirit is produced in the Bluegrass State. More than two hundred distilleries once operated in Kentucky, but only sixty-one survived Prohibition. Though the businesses were gone, most of the buildings remained, unused, slowly deteriorating for decades. Now, thanks in large part to the explosion of interest in craft bourbon, many of these historic buildings are being brought back to life, often as new distilleries. With progress, however, comes loss, and the record of what existed at these sites across the Commonwealth is disappearing just as more and more people are interested in bourbon's history.
