Newsletter Dated: 1/1/2013 10:26:23 AMSubject: Cyrus Webb Presents the "Mississippi Reads" Book Club
Conversations Book Club President Cyrus Webb is excited to announce the launch of "Mississippi Reads"( http://www.mississippireads.com). "This is our way of not only celebrating Mississippi authors but events where those in Mississippi can discuss books," says Webb, 37.
Since 2006 Conversations Book Club has hosted over 100 authors events in MS, LA, TN, GA and TX---most of which have included Mississippi authors. "It's been important for me to include my home state that gave me my start," Webb says, "and I see this new site as a larger way to do that."
Through "Mississippi Reads" Webb will be spotlight the Magnolia State's literary talent and allow the site to be the place that discusses reads for each year.
