January 21st Quarterly Meeting

The Fredericksburg Writers Conference will meet at the Hill Country University Center on Thursday, January 21st, at 6:00 PM.  The featured presenter will be James Kearney, lecturer at the University of Texas and writer/translator of a series of books about early Texas.

His translation of Friederichsburg by Armand Strubberg (or Dr Schubbert, for whom Schubert Street was named) is a rip-roaring Western novel which doubles as a history lesson with 147 pages of footnotes telling the difference between the novel and the true story of the founding of Fredericksburg. 

On top of this, James also happens to be a very cool guy.  Bring your friends, this will be a good time.
