Number Two
One Writer’s Beginnings by Eudora Welty (1984) spoke to me as a teen in Jackson, Mississippi. I heard the voices in “Why I live at the P.O.” and loved to write. Miss Welty’s house was close to Belhaven College and Millsaps in Jackson so I knew she was real. My mother had seen her in the grocery store. Writer’s were real; their stories were real. My secret dream was real too.
