On Thursday, August 1, at 5:30 p.m., The Gallery at Flat Rock will host a talk by author Ashley Davis. Davis wrote \u201cA Life Through Letters,\u201d which explores the importance of letter writing as seen through through a collection of letters written by the author\u2019s father. \u201cAshley\u2019s book triggered a nostalgia for letter writing and, since reading his book, I have had the satisfaction of reading some old letters and sending out a few letters to people I have been thinking about,\u201d says Suzanne Camarata Ball, owner of The Gallery at Flat Rock. \u201cMy wish is that we will get a diverse age group that attends the reading and conversation, igniting a thoughtful discourse about living intentionally.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Davis will give an overview of his book and his process for developing it. \u201cI\u2019ll talk about my father and the impact of his letters on my family and others,\u201d the author says. \u201cI\u2019ll share some stories about letter writing and how it has impacted my life and what others have shared with me along this journey of rediscovering the art of letter writing. I hope to help people understand the power of a traditional letter and the impact it can have on the recipient as well as the writer.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
