The South\, small towns and mid-century summers collide in verse with quiet tension and churning drama.”–Kasie Whitener\, PhD\, University of South Carolina\, Darla Moore School of Business \n“The Heartbeat of Quiet Streets is an amazing title for a quality compilation of writing pieces. I chose one or two at a time to read\, to best enjoy them\, sinking into each\, basking in the unique world each had to offer. Kudos not only to the writers\, but to the editor who made the pieces an admirable whole.”–C. Hope Clark\, award-winning author of The Carolina Slade Mysteries\, the Edisto Island Mysteries\, and the Craven County Mysteries \nGlen Bramlitt\, an artist and engineer in South Carolina\, blends the boundless possibilities of ‘what-if’ with a vivid imagination. His current genre is dystopian fiction.

She has been in publishing for more than thirty years as an author\, publicist\, speaker\, and publisher for Fortune 500 companies. Her historical fiction trilogy\, The Buried Sunshine series\, won the International Book Impact Award in 2024 in the Historical Fiction category. \nTerresa Cooper Haskew’s poetry and prose has appeared in more than fifty printed journal and anthology issues (Atlanta Review\, American Journal of Nursing\, The Main Street Rag).
