Katie Crouch, author of Girls In Trucks, had the audience in stitches at her book signing at Davis-Kidd in Nashville tonight. She related her story of learning the shag while in Cotillion as a young girl. Moving to England and hearing young men talk about “shagging” while she was a 22-year-old ESL teacher, she enthusiastically joined in the conversation and shared her “shagging” stories with them…not understanding the wildly different connotations that word has in the Charleston, SC vs. London.
The delightful book club from Dickson, they call themselves the “Tuesday Book Club,” attended the book signing. I first met some of the women at Susan Gregg Gilmore‘s signing of Looking for Salvation at the Dairy Queen at Davis-Kidd in February.
