I've been going to the Jackson County Library since before I could write in cursive. It used to be at the Sylva police station, and that was where I discovered my love of books. We would check out our books and we were always excited to read them, but need to do chores first. :(  

After the library moved to the courthouse they began a writing program for middle schoolers where I learned my love of writing thanks to Ben and Liz. (I still have the tiny book we "published"). I know so many librarians and I wish I could list them all, but I appear to be running out of space. They've been there for me through hard times, and it's really cool of them to call me by name when I walk in. Love all of you guys!
