"CHICKENS IN THE ROAD" - Blog Worth A Visit |
| (08/25/2008) |
| One of the state's most interesting blogs with country-life photos has its origin in Roane County - "Chickens in the Road: Life in Ordinary Splendor." It is certainly worth a visit. Writer Suzann McMinn returned to her family roots three years ago to 40 acres of land in rural Roane. The 44-year-old McMinn said she was at a crossroads following a divorce. Figuring that as a writer, she could take her laptop computer and work anywhere, she turned to her family's 200-year-old roots just outside Walton. McMinn, who has written 26 books, many with the Harlequin romance imprint Silhouette, keeps a daily Web log of her adventures in rural living. The blog continues to garner a lot of attention, mostly because it reflects country life. The link is on the Herald's link page. |
