The Duck & Herring Co. is pleased to announce the release of its Pocket Field Guide for Warm Weather 2008. That said: Boy! What an issue!
The Duck & Herring Co. Cold Weather Radio Hour
January 25, 2008, 8p
Agnes Scott College, Alston Campus Center, Fireside Lounge
MUSIC - READINGS - RADIO SKITS - PRIZES - HOT CHOCOLATE
The Duck & Herring Co., the literary entity responsible for the Writers Conference at the Decatur Book Festival, has recently published its Cold Weather Pocket Field Guide for Winter 2007-2008.
For this reason, and many others (some related, sadly, to “crass commercialism” and “self-esteem”), the editors - Jamie Allen, Tom Bell and Terra Elan McVoy - are holding a Radio Hour at Agnes Scott, which will be fun. You should come!
There will be singing, laughs, readings, phone calls. And it will be podcasted on the World Wide Web. Also, a special kind of hot chocolate will be served.
FREE.

What do you get when you collect writing from a Minnesota mother and wife, a professor of law at Boston University, a German-born scientist, a former resident of the Soviet Union, a former Peace Corps volunteer, an MFA student at NYU, a contributing writer to The Morning News, among others, and you add some stuff to it?
Well, in this case you get The Duck & Herring Co.’s Cold Weather Pocket Field Guide for 2007-2008.
In this issue:
- Fiction from Mark Maynard, Kellie Isbell, Jay Wexler, Natasha Grinberg, Kim Teeple, Benjamin Black and Weston Cutter
- Odd little things from Joachim Frank and Jess Miller
- Advice on dressing in layers, avoiding frostbite, running in sub-zero temperatures, and something you can do with a pinecone
- Recipes for Butternut Squash Lasagna and Big Jim’s Oyster Stew
- At least one embarrassing (yet anonymous) admission by one of our editors
- Plus, our patented seasonal to-do list
The color of this PFG cover is gray, like frosty winter on your window pane, with the dark green print of pines showing through.
