Andre Portes live this Saturday June 21 4-6pm CST

Thursday, June 19, 2008


Join us on Saturday as we talk with Debut Novelist Andre Portes on what its like to be the new kid on the block with a hot new work of fiction that's already going to big screen and how she landed the Timberking guy as her dance partner at that big Plupwood Queen high hair ball event in TEXAS!


Andrea Portes grew up in rural Nebraska, later shuffling between Illinois, Texas, Brazil, North Dakota and North Carolina before attending Bryn Mawr College. She received her MFA from UC San Diego and became a script reader for Paramount Pictures. She now lives in Los Angeles and is a nightlife columnist for several websites. Hick is her first novel.

AND IT GOES SOMETHING LIKE THIS:


A keen-eyed, 13-year-old girl

leaves both her bare-handed past

and her dark likely future behind,

takes to the road, and carves a

new dream out of her boundless

will, her fearlessness, and her

newborn desires.

More Great Music, Great Stories, And Great Company from the open road on the radio!

Tune in from Nashville at 98.9lpfm, Davidson County, TN - www.radiofreenashville.org from anywhere in the world.

"Mystical and magically written, Saints In Limbo, is a beautiful novel from start to finish. With vivid characters and lush language, readers will find themselves thinking of Augusta Trobaugh's Resting in the Bosom of the Lamb. Fans of River Jordan will be thrilled with this latest work."
— Michael Morris, author of Slow Way Home
