Six Bridges Book Festival: Eli Cranor

Moderated by Phillip Martin

Six Bridges Book Festival presents Eli Cranor (Where I'm Writing From: Selected Columns). Moderated by Phillip Martin

Eli Cranor

Bestselling novelist Eli Cranor lives on the banks of Lake Dardanelle and teaches creative writing at Arkansas Tech University. His work has been included on "best of the year" lists from the New York Times, USA Today, Amazon Editors, and others. His work has been nominated for nearly every major award in the crime fiction genre, and most recently the prestigious Mark Twain American Voice in Literature Award and the Willie Morris Award for Southern Writing in Fiction.  
 
For the first time, Edgar Award–winning author Eli Cranor’s acclaimed Arkansas Democrat-Gazette column “Where I’m Writing From” is collected in one volume. This collection is more than a peek behind the curtain of a bestselling author’s process; it’s a love letter to Arkansas and a testament to the power of showing up. Where I’m Writing From offers a front-row seat to the messy, beautiful reality of a life lived in pursuit of finding the perfect word.
