Hilarie will read “Irregularities,” a short story by Courtney Jones.
Other participants include Clay McLeod Chapman reading his own story, “oldsmobile," Erin Thomas and Larry Cook reading “The Man Who Knew Belle Starr” by Richard Bausch, and Dan Ruth reading “Peace, Brother” by Edward Falco. Musical guests Kelly Kennedy and Mark Rhodes will accompany the Virginia actors as they read these always-intriguing short stories in theatrical and festive surroundings. The event will be recorded live for broadcast by 88.9, WCVE-FM on Thanksgiving evening, November 23rd. With the success of this special holiday broadcast in the past, it is an evening many look forward to “gathering around the radio.”
Audience members will have a fun opportunity to mingle with the artists at a reception following the evening's performances. Books, CDs, and other memorabilia will be available for purchase, along with a cash bar.

Horses, just came out. Get it! Ben is one of my favorites)
2. Langhorne Slim - Rebel Side Of Heaven (Been listening to this song since this summer. Hasn't gotten old yet)
4. Billy Currington - Good Directions (I have such a crush on Mr. Currington. I pretend he's singing this song about me. Ha. Southern boys make me nuts.)
5. Tom Waits - Sea of Love (This is a sexy damn song. I want to slow dance to this real bad.)
6. The Avett Brothers - Will You Return (A friend just gave me this song on a mixtape. This song is a gift I
love from a friend I love.)
