seated on a swing in an enclosed "hippy den" that doubles as the back porch of her East Nashville home swaddled amongst the half-dozen colorful throw blankets surrounding her The area is as ripe with sunlight as it is with inspiration ask why the grooves and vocals on the Kentucky native's album "I’m Not Who You Think I Am," released May 2 from Lee Brice's Pump House Records sound so invitingly warm and the ambience of the room only tells half of the story "(Album track 'Holler') opens with my grandmother’s voice singing an old-time gospel tune — a beautiful way to honor her legacy even though she’s been gone for 20 years," Howard said "I love that her talent is finally getting a moment in the spotlight This song tells the story of growing up in the Appalachian Mountains of Kentucky filled with cherished memories that shaped me into the resilient woman I am today and sharing this piece of my heart with the world brings me so much joy." unique musical journeyThe songs that comprise "I’m Not Who You Think I Am" are 20 years old because between 2004 and 2023 Howard's career deviated from being a Grammy and International Bluegrass Music Association award-winning and Academy of Country Music award-nominated multi-genre performer favored by the Grand Ole Opry to encapsulating something greater Howard is a rare performer gifted at all facets of the stage including with the bass As much as she's the singer of the critically beloved top-20 country hit "Forgive" in 2002 she's also a collaborator and background vocalist favored by Country Music Hall of Famers including Ronnie Dunn Dig a decade back into her work and find her touring as a bass guitarist for Aerosmith's Steven Tyler when he crafted a country solo release as performers including Martina McBride and Trisha Yearwood have cut her material over the past quarter century Howard's new album celebrates being a seasoned and doggedly determined creative now willing with a spirit tempered by empathy and time to embrace being more willing than ever to give the bounty of her creative gifts to herself first she wrote "I Am My Mother" as a song inspired by a text thread with a few of her regular co-writers we love to deep clean — I'm like my mother," she recalled texting Howard's mother visited and washed dishes in the sink at her home country music being based on three chords and the truth sounded genuinely accurate These songs are soulfully sung because their wisdom isn't so much driven by homepun truths as it is rooted in a particular kind of life and love that burns brighter each year like the candles on a home-baked birthday cake "She walked through valleys with us on her shoulders / She said you'll understand someday when you're older / She poured all of her strength / in my heart and my hands so now when I think I can't I know I can," sings the performer who for years struggled with chronic anxiety disorder Similar to “I Am My Mother,” songs like “Heart Still Does,” “Holler,” “Good Place To Turn Around,” and “Strong” reflect the power of countrified and simple Appalachian wisdom to serve as tentposts as a life survived that “move people’s hearts.” is another key facet of "I’m Not Who You Think I Am" that is welcomed but not reflective of new territory for Howard's well-regarded and multifaceted career She's been praised throughout her career for being able to hit the same type of mournful "high lonesome" falsetto that defined Bill Monroe's foundation-establishing career "My spiritual connection to God and Southern music — Mother Maybelle Carter banjo picking and soulful gospel (sounds) — allows me to create from an authentically raw and honest place constantly," she said "'I’m Not Who You Think I Am' realizes that because we share or are inspired by each other's perspectives." “A Good Place To Turn Around” highlights Howard's feelings that she’s burned every bridge she would need to turn back as she emptied her tank while heading down her existence as a metaphorical lonesome highway Seeking solace in religion to discover peace of mind it’s a phenomenal song-as-story-of-redemption that demands attention The silver lining at the end of the story — and a sense of where Howard’s skills in the next chapter of her career exist best as a live performer who brings down the house — appears via “Hoedown.” Loretta Lynn has her legacy’s imprint all over the raucous party anthem “If she don’t quit shaking that thing talking all that trash / the back of her head is going to hit the grass / Yeah there’s a hoedown down at the barn somebody sound the hoe alarm / hoedown she tried to do it / and my fist I introduced her to it,” sings Howard on the song that revives and reimagines Lynn’s classic “Fist City.” renowned artist and producer Elisha Hoffman and one of the award-winning best singer-songwriters of the early 2010s — South Carolina-born two-time Academy of Country Music Song of the Year award-winner Lee Brice — with their guiding hand aiding her in developing her project She said she is humbled to have two peerless lifelong creatives as valued aides "Lee's a dynamic presence whose humanity and work I admire," said Howard He's still an incredibly gifted and humble good ol' boy." happily underscored his wife of two decades' points about her album's creative process The longtime Nashville resident is a tireless behind-the-boards songsmith whose music industry history supersedes genres and multimedia formats and encapsulates everyone from Lynyrd Skynyrd drummer Artimus Pyle to The Chicks and Shania Twain understanding the delicate balance between being business savvy and embracing the creative mindset who noted that her hometown of Salyersville is 13 miles from Loretta Lynn's home of Butcher Hollow She also shares the icon's legendary love of blunt honesty "Country women like us just say it like it is what it is — thankfully visceral music'"As much as I get pitched what people consider to be hit songs I just want to believably deliver music to an audience that feels real and relatable," said Howard when asked to describe the most significant victory of an album that showcases how steadfast she's remained in her art's authenticity for two decades "These songs are more emotional in general sometimes than they are happy or sad," said Howard about "I’m Not Who You Think I Am." "I'm grateful to have come through what I've gone through with my faith I recorded these songs because they are (more defined by) an authentic spirit than a catchy lyric." She noted that because spirits are tremendous vessels for heart and hurt using her songs to uplift someone from life's most painful pits in their hearts and hurt in their souls is ideal visceral music that (uniquely) moves a frequency inside and outside people's bodies that provides hope "It's all about getting through life by being molded and shaped by the wild ride of accepting who you are more than figuring it out." The Magazine of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Field Immortal, Sue Lynn Tan (Harper Voyager 978-0-06344-577-2, $32.00, 464pp, hc) January 2025 Immortal unfolds in the same universe as Sue Lynn Tan’s other Celestial Kingdom novels tasked with ruling the mortal kingdom of Tianxia caught up in the nefarious power politics between a race of immortals and other magical beings which blends a ‘‘Beauty and Beast’’ retelling with some political intrigue the first half of Immortal is also concerned with a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance between Lady Tianxia and Zhangwei while the latter half follows through with several revela­tions and plot developments The overall result: A standalone romantasy where the fantasy elements seemed to me to be an accessory to a sweeping romance between two souls fated to be together The story opens with vivid scenes of destruc­tion and devastation; Liyen grieves the death of her grandfather the erstwhile ruler who’d secretly stolen the ‘‘Divine Pearl Lotus’’ (demanded by the immortal Queen Caihong of the Golden Desert) to save his only heir although Liyen is cured of her mysterious ailments and becomes physically stronger her heart still aches even as she struggles to hold dominion over an unstable kingdom Despite the protection afforded by the immortals Tianxia is routinely beset by the Winged Devils her power-hungry courtiers are determined to marry her off to a suitor of their choosing while ceaselessly plotting to under­mine each other Liyen makes a vow to free her kingdom from their obligations to the selfish and self-serving immortals and embarks on a journey to the Immortal Realm only to find herself dan­gerously attracted to the God of War One of the most enjoyable aspects of the book is the relationship between Lady Tianxia and Zhan­gwei though I found their characters to be somewhat thinly sketched From divinely ordained soulmates to occasional bouts of am­nesia as well as periods of forced proximity the central romance seems to follow common tropes of the genre Though Liyen’s love interest may have little to do in the narrative his brooding personality gloriously heightens the romantic tension she focuses on slowly building the bonds of trust and companionship only to throw in a new twist every now and then to dismantle and forge the partnership anew this romance section could’ve been its own short book Liyen has the rather unsurprising realization that the world isn’t neatly divided into good and bad sides and that those she’s conditioned to think of as enemies to be vanquished (like the Wuxin) may have justi­fied reasons for acting the way they do Family secrets and the truth of Lady Tianxia’s heritage are finally revealed even as loyalties are tested and new alliances forged aiding Liyen in her journey of self-development empowering her to live on her own terms and rule justly With the romantic storyline somewhat settled early on the political intrigue is mildly interesting Immortal won me over with the deli­cious romance between Liyen and Zhangwei while the political machinations were a little less compelling for me The rules of magic and world­building are also softer with some evocative de­scriptions here and there along with the welcome appearance of a few mythical creatures While this didn’t quite strike me as a high fantasy world to get lost in the constant twists and turns in narrative make up for the sparse settings Immortal is also lightly concerned with questions of power – especially if it can be justly deployed and make amends for historical wrongs – allowing for the main character to gradually come to her own conclusions and embrace her destiny it’s a book that focusses on romantic drama and will surely appeal to lovers of romantasy Your purchase through the links below brings us a small amount of affiliate income and helps us keep doing all the reviews you love to read with a fondness for dark and fantastical things She completed her B.A (2018) and M.A (2020) in English Literature from Jadavpur University and a Diploma in Multimedia and Animation from St When she isn’t writing speculative fiction or drawing fanart This review and more like it in the April 2025 issue of Locus While you are here please take a moment to support Locus with a one-time or recurring donation We rely on reader donations to keep the magazine and site going and would like to keep the site paywall free but WE NEED YOUR FINANCIAL SUPPORT to continue quality coverage of the science fiction and fantasy field Copyrighted material may not be republished without permission of LSFF Δdocument.getElementById( "ak_js_1" ).setAttribute( "value" “I once did a four book deal at a Locus party on the publisher’s back deck It connects me to the publishing world.” Locus Magazine and Website cover science fiction Every contribution helps pay our writers, editors, and artists, sustain the magazine and website, and allows us to continue to share our content without a paywall.

Lynn wrote the book as a prequel to her TikTok video series In Jaysea Lynn’s “For Whom the Belle Tolls” the afterlife might not be what you expect leaves her life in the Pacific Northwest behind when she dies from cancer But she finds an unexpected family and a fiery romance as she runs the “Hellp Desk,” where souls sent to Hell for rehabilitation bring their customer complaints Lynn shared some details about the first book in the trilogy, inspired by a series she started on TikTok, ahead of an event planned for May 8 at Powell’s Books at Cedar Hills Crossing in Beaverton This conversation has been edited for clarity and length Jess Hazel: So this is a pretty new way to develop a story and characters You’re probably one of a handful of folks who have started a fictional world online and turned it into a book can you explain what it was like to turn hundreds of TikTok videos into hundreds of pages of romance and fantasy I came up with an idea when I was working as a cashier at Joanne’s Why not?” And now we’re 600+ episodes and like four years later how can I be intentional?” Because all of this stuff on TikTok just was like throwing paint to the wall and seeing what stuck now I’ve got to retroactively do world-building,” whereas with the book And it was really nice because the show on TikTok is a one-man band situation I was going to ask about that one-man show aspect of it The book switches perspectives between Lily and the main romantic interest Did performing dialogue for the different characters in your videos help you develop those different voices They’re slightly different characters in the book than they are in the show But there were definitely things where I was like Lily’s gonna be very sarcastic and mouthy.” She has a certain pattern of speaking that he’s gonna have different lingo and different slang that he uses.” But his mental That’s a lot of people already invested in this world you’ve built So how does having that audience impact your creative process what would a stadium of 1.8 million people look like?” I’m from Astoria because I do know that I have a really big platform But I can’t go too deep into it because I am who I am and that’s too many people and there’s some creative moments of intimacy throughout the whole book How important was it for you to have Lily and Bel’s relationship develop in such a specific way really important because they’re both very sensual people naturally Both of them just like intimacy and they got to discover what real emotional intimacy as well as what physical intimacy looked like So it was really important for me to have that friendship and also have them both just look at each other and go a book set in the afterlife grapples with a lot of ideas surrounding faith there were some real struggles with Christianity Can you tell us more about exploring what can be a traumatic relationship Lynn: That was drawn a lot from my experiences Christianity makes so much sense in terms of what it values — of being kind to each other what would that look like to have that genuine conversation What kind of conversations would you want to have?” I had a lot of conversations with a lot of my friends who were also formerly religious It was that reliance on God — we reach out for comfort or communication or support I’m having a really bad day or I’m really struggling with this There were some really hard conversations and hard research that I did to try and explore that and do it in a respectful way without just completely backing away from the conversation at all Tags: Author, Books

fire why didn’t he target other related businesses?” after being arrested on unrelated federal drug trafficking charges in Mississippi Prosecutors said he confessed to his role in the Bar 5015 explosion and implicated Lynn Price Lee Price allegedly told investigators that Lynn Price directed him to recruit a crew for the arson and promised payment also reportedly confessed to involvement and told investigators he feared Lynn Price noting his reputation and history of violence Bar 5015 owner Steve Rogers told FBI agents his impression of what led to the fire He said he had an idea to open 5015 and initially was going to bring Lynn Price in as a potential co-owner He then decided he did not want to do business with Lynn Price or his wife READ: ‘The math is not mathin’: Turkey Leg Hut responds to $1.2 million lawsuit filed by US Foods over late grocery bill Rogers allegedly told investigators that Lynn Price tried to buy into Bar 5015 and came to him with a box full of cash as payment to be a part of the partnership Rogers said he took the box back to TLH and returned the money Lynn Price called him sometime before the fire yelling and hollering about him selling crawfish at 5015 Rogers allegedly told investigators that Lynn Price viewed it as a conflict of interest Rogers stated that he heard Lynn Price say he’d “blow the place up” if certain conditions were not met Prosecutors also presented text messages from Lynn Price that he thought were threatening I will come to your house and kill that dog … stop playing and I mean it Text messages between a former TLH general manager and Lynn Price were part of the presentation from prosecutors The former general manager said she was arguing with Lynn Price on text when he told her “I will come to your house and kill that dog … stop playing and I mean it." Prosecutors also said she was reluctant to speak with the FBI There were multiple text messages of them arguing about TLH because she was trying to help him and tell him what to do but he reportedly told her it’s his restaurant and he knew what to do Egbuonu described the texts as profanity-laden arguments and claimed messages might have been spurred by that general manager allegedly stealing money from the business acknowledging his client could have presented his side differently Prosecutors detailed the relationship between Lee Price and Lynn Price which began in 2018 after Lee Price was released from a 30-month federal sentence for tax fraud Lee Price told investigators he worked odd jobs for Lynn Price who was still under supervised release at the time of the arson He said he would message Lynn Price with theft opportunities and Price would either sell or strip the stolen goods Police officer’s vehicle stolen and burned Lee Price described stealing a blue Chevy Nova that Lynn Price wanted for its engine After discovering the car was stolen from a police officer Price allegedly ordered Lee Price to get rid of and burn it The vehicle was recovered near some railroad tracks and a retention pond who confirmed the incident through a police report Prosecutors allege that drug activity occurred at the Turkey Leg Hut from at least 2022 to 2023 Lee Price told investigators that he received money from hydro marijuana being sold at the restaurant He would reportedly travel to California and bring it back in trailers to store it at the TLH facility because of 24-hour security Lee Price reportedly picked up 500-1,000 pounds of drugs being sold on multiple occasions The FBI agent testified that the trailer would be parked in the back of TLH where three different types of marijuana were stored Prosecutors said the TLH had special packaging for the drugs and after being sold Lynn Price would collect the proceeds but share some of them with Lee Price for delivery Prosecutors said firearms were seized at Lynn Price’s home on Monday following his arrest Prosecutors noted that one of the recovered firearms was stolen and others were registered to various people Lynn Price reported to live with his mother but investigators said that he actually lived at his own leased home in Missouri City They noted he lied to the court about not having firearms and claimed he hasn’t paid rent at any point Prosecutors said Lynn Price has violated court ordered protective orders at least four times and has allegedly committed various violence Other alleged offenses presented by prosecutors: investigators at the Texas Department of Public Safety had an ongoing investigation of Lynn Price related to identity theft at the time he was arrested on federal charges We learned in court that Lynn Price was evicted from his Missouri City home earlier this week Lynn Price’s mother and others offered their support for him The judge also accepted a letter from former NBA player and coach Don Chaney in support of Price’s character One of the witnesses described Price as someone with “a huge heart,” adding “He would give the shirt off his back if you needed it… he’s always looking to help people.” The defense showed photos of Price helping after natural disasters READ: Turkey Leg Hut giving away 3,000 turkey legs Egbuonu said that another witness would testify that Price “always went above and beyond,” noting their 20-year friendship through church assured the court she would ensure he attends all hearings READ: Turkey Leg Hut surprises homeless by giving out free turkeys Prosecutors closed with a sharp warning: “You’ve heard the expression there’s fire,” said federal prosecutor Sebastian Edwards noting that Lynn Price has a pattern of responding to his problems (he was arrested for arson in 2005 and received deferred adjudication) When the defense was asked by KPRC 2’s Bryce Newberry about the prosecutors statement "I thought the chickens come home to roost," Egbuonu said We’re not going to litigate this case in the media who noted she never went to the once-popular restaurant ended the hearing by saying there’s a lot to think about and she’s going to chew on it We’ll keep you updated on when the judge decides about keeping Lynn Price in custody Copyright 2025 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved

Latest on former Alabama basketball player's case MICHAEL DAVIS: Attorney: Michael Lynn Davis not the 'bad guy' after capital murder charge against him, Darius Miles Harris and company were seen lined up behind Bradley and Miles at 12:05 a.m Their first known interaction was not until 1:36 a.m. Bradley and Davis encountered a four-door Jeep Wrangler which Humphrey was driving with Harris in the passenger seat and Johnson in the back left which was stopped at the intersection of Grace Street and University Boulevard with Miles eventually joining Davis and speaking into the Jeep with Bradley trying to pull Davis away Surveillance footage showed Davis firing into the driver’s side window of the Jeep while Johnson has said that Johnson shot first and that Miles provided the gun for protection Prosecutors claim it was Davis who shot first with Johnson turning left onto University Boulevard he approached police by the Walk of Champions in front of Bryant-Denny Stadium and told them his girlfriend had been shot Miles and Davis ended up at former Alabama basketball player Nick Pringle’s apartment at the Vie at University Downs to report his friend had been shot but saying he did not know how Police responded to Miles’ call at the apartment where they collected statements from him about what happened Miles went with police to the station and was placed in an interview room around 4 a.m Davis received medical attention for a gunshot wound in his right shoulder and a graze to his right side at DCH Regional Medical Center and was then taken to the Tuscaloosa Police Department Violent Crimes Unit telling police he was drunk and did not remember what happened Both Davis and Miles have since been incarcerated and held without bond Davis also applied for youthful offender status Could Brandon Miller testify in Michael Lynn Davis' trial?There are 22 potential witnesses listed on court records in Davis' case None were charged with a crime following the shooting but could potentially be called to testify 2 overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft by the Charlotte Hornets while Bradley transferred to Arizona following the 2023 season and Pringle transferred to South Carolina a year later He has since committed to transfer to Arkansas could also potentially be called to testify and a smaller Union Hospital on Lynnfield Street Both provided meticulous care to anyone who needed treatment or if you had or didn’t have health insurance All that seemed to change when the wrecking crew demolished Lynn Hospital and the nursing school next to the hospital in 1995 All that was left was a huge track of land Stop & Shop eventually opened a store where a small part of Lynn Hospital once stood the citizens of Lynn still had Union Hospital And even though it was somewhat smaller than Lynn Hospital it still provided more than adequate care to anyone who went through its doors That means that anyone who has a medical emergency particularly for the handicapped or the elderly As anyone who has been in the emergency room at Salem Hospital knows you have to wait several hours before you see a doctor I believe a major mistake the medical hierarchy made was to close both hospitals in Lynn Common sense dictates that a city the size of Lynn needs a small community hospital although the politicians will say the money isn’t available for such a project I say that’s a lot of “bull.” America is still the richest country in the world and the cost of building a hospital in Lynn would be a mere drop in the bucket Tammy lived her life with an unstoppable spirit She devoted her life to raising her two sons Dillon and Mason; taking them anywhere and everywhere they wanted to go She truly believed it took a village to raise children a value she not only preached but lived by every day Her home operated with an open-door policy always making sure the fridge was stocked with food and drinks and ensuring that none of her sons’ friends ever left hungry Her home was a place where everyone was welcome she began working as a CNA at Winona Health where she stayed for 15 years caring for her patients with the same incredible compassion and heart she always showed her family which quickly became one of their favorite things to do together and simply enjoying the small moments that made their bond so special She poured her heart and soul into raising her sons She affectionately called them "Dibber" and "M-Dog" - nicknames filled with the warmth Her hard work and belief in them paid off: Dillon is a Composite Engineer and Mason is a Lieutenant in the fire service and their successes are a lasting testament to the incredible woman she was Tammy found immense joy in becoming a Grandmother Boden and Levi brought her so much happiness whether it was seeing little Boden’s face light up on FaceTime or holding baby Levi close Her pure love for them showed through every smile Tammy always had a way of seeing the good in everyone Her happy-go-lucky spirit brought light to every room she entered and shoes; always with a soft spot for anything in her favorite pattern: camo She cherished boat rides on the mighty Mississippi One of her greatest joys during Christmas was curling up to watch Hallmark movies She also had a deep passion for country music songs that spoke to her soul and reflected the strength Another passion of Tammy’s was mowing the lawn on her John Deere zero-turn mower carefully crafting the yard into a perfect checkerboard pattern taking pride in making her home look beautiful was right for those close to her; always striving for perfection and ability to find beauty in life's simplest blessings made her truly one of a kind living on in her family and all those blessed enough to have known her Tammy is survived by her loving family – her Mother Bonnie Fossum of Winona WI; sons Dillon (Natalie and grandson Levi) Geiger of Galesville WI; Mason (Brialle and grandson Boden) Geiger of Dickinson ND; sisters Shonna (Karl) Muller of Red Wing WI; nieces Kayla (Sean and their children Atlas and Midas) Blackie;

LYNN — With the school year nearing its end Lynn Public Schools (LPS) is focused on completing the City Arts and Sciences Academy (CASA) The school will be based in the Fecteau-Leary building at 33 North Common St. which will receive renovations before the start of the year The school will be for grades 6 through 12 We are building futures,” Superintendent Dr “This school represents our community’s deep commitment to equipping students with the skills and critical thinking they’ll need to thrive in a rapidly changing world and shape the future with confidence and purpose.” LPS has been exploring the idea of CASA for the past two years according to Executive Director of Innovation and Grants Management Dr “We have a growing population of students in the district This prompted us to really be thinking about all of our learning spaces that we have available,” she said Gardner continued that LPS knew the academy was an exciting new choice for students and families to explore “All of the new learning spaces that we want to open we want to be innovative and we want to engage students When students are deeply interested in a pathway That’s what we’re looking to build at City Arts and Sciences Academy,” she said The district visited two schools while exploring the idea of CASA: Boston Arts Academy and Baxter Academy for Technology and Science in Portland “Both of those schools were using STEM pathways and we could see a different type of school day that was occurring Students had pathways for their interest in those schools Students had independent learning and projects and those were great models for us to see,” Gardner said CASA will have project-based learning to help connect learning skills in multiple content areas to provide students a different type of learning experience “What we envision is student are learning their content areas but we’re bringing it together through projects Project-based learning is at the foundation of the design at CASA,” she said “Teachers from different content areas will have one day out of the five days where students will be working on projects that are connected to their content areas.” When asked what the response has been from parents and students she said that they’ve heard from many who have recognized CASA as the place for them and problem solvers all can find their place at City Arts and Sciences Academy,” she said Gardner also explained that CASA was created with trimesters to give students more opportunities to explore electives “There will be more opportunities for students to do more of what they’re interested in and that they love we have more opportunities for them to do that,” she said Gardner also mentioned that the school days will be longer for this same reason The school will be opening in September and has already gone through the lottery and recruitment process.
