A Spot of Tea & a Mystery
Written By: Wiley Sloan | Issue: 2016/06 - June
Readers who enjoy little character pieces set in small Southern towns or cozy mysteries will want to join author Mary Kay Andrews for the Third Annual Author’s Tea at Highlands United Methodist Church on Saturday, June 18, from 2:00 to 4:00 P.M.
If you relish novels set in a Southern venue, you’re probably already familiar with Mrs. Andrews’ works such as “Save the Date,” “Ladies Night,” or “Christmas Bliss.” Hear all about her latest novel, “The Weekenders,” which takes place in the idyllic seaside community of Belle Island, North Carolina. There will be copies of this novel for you to purchase at the tea so you can read all about it.
Tickets are $20 each. Don’t delay, the tables sell out fast. Call the Church office at (828) 526-3376 or Event Coordinator Gay Kattel at (828) 526-2746.
Sunlight will sparkle on the crystal and fine china that decorates each of the exquisitely appointed tables. Show your creativity as you don festive summer attire. Mrs. Andrews is widely known for her mysteries, as well as her novels. A former reporter for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, this Florida-born gal worked in Savannah, too. Her journalism degree from the University of Georgia launched her into a career that any writer would envy. It’s interesting to see how she weaves the towns of the South into her stories. Why, our own Highlands has been mentioned a time or two! Learn how her penchant for “junking” and her large, ethnic, Catholic family influence the characters in her novels.
You’ll have a fun-filled afternoon as you help the church raise funds for its new Faith and Fellowship Center. For more information, go to highlandsmethodist.org.
