Patricia Neely-Dorsey's Reflections of a Mississippi Magnolia

Profile Information

Something About Me and My Book:: My name is Patricia Neely-Dorsey. I am from Tupelo,MS. I recently returned home, after living almost 20 yrs in Memphis,TN ,working in the mental health field. In February 2008, I published my first book of poetry entitled "Reflections of a Mississippi Magnolia: a life in poems". There are so many negative connotations associated with Mississippi and the south in general. I want to show a flip side of the coin. There is much to love about this much maligned and misunderstood part of our country. Through childhood memories, personal thoughts and dreams I attempt to give a positive glimpse into the southern way of life.
I really want people to get to KNOW Mississippi in a different light and I want to introduce them.
My platform is basically Meeting Mississippi Through Poetry, Prose and The Written Word.
You can purchase the book at www.reeds.ms/books.asp

"A CELBRATION OF THE SOUTH AND THINGS SOUTHERN"

BOOK AVAILABLE: www.reeds.ms/books.asp
$15

SOUTHERN LIFE
If you want a glimpse of southern life,
Come close and walk with me;
I'll tell you all the simple things,
That you are sure to see.
You'll see mockingbirds and bumblebees,
Magnolia blossoms and dogwood trees;
Caterpillars on the step,
Wooden porches cleanly swept;
Watermelons on the vine
Strong majestic Georgia pines;
Rocking chairs and front yard swings,
Junebugs flying on a string;
Turnip greens and hot cornbread,
Coleslaw and barbecue;
Fried okra, fried corn, fried green tomatoes,
Fried pies and pickles, too.
There's ice cold tea that's syrupy sweet,
And cool green grass beneath your feet;
Catfish nipping in the lake
And fresh young boys on the make.
You'll see all these things
And much, much more
In a way of life, that I adore

It features Reflections of a Mississippi Magnolia, along with your bio, photo and my review. It's a great article, if I do say so myself! You might want to pick up a few copies for family and friends. Hope you enjoy it!

At 7:31am on November 19, 2008, Teresa said…: Thank you. I am the author and the publisher so I threw it myself. It was actually the release party of my first book. I contacted our local restaurant "Japanese" and made arrangements with them. I belong to a Urban Professional Networking group and asked if they would donate a raffle gift, and some self published authors to donate autographed books. It was a nice time, I sent evites to people to cut down on the postage cost. The entire evening was inexpensive less than 200 dollars.

At 11:38am on October 20, 2008, Shontell said…: Congratulation on your new book. I am a southern writer and publisher, in the Atlanta area, so let me know if there is any information that I can share or we can find out together, just let me know.
