What a pleasure. -Allen H. Johnson III, Executive Editorial Page Editor, Greensboro News & Record and Winston-Salem Journal Whether shaming political extremists or extolling the virtues of friendly foxes, Mick Scott's opinion columns in the Winston-Salem Journal were always well-written, rational and entertaining. While timely and of-the-moment when first penned, these essays stand the test of time by virtue of Scott's graceful prose and clearly reasoned positions. -Lynn Felder, North Carolina-based poet, playwright and journalist What a lovely collection: Mick Scott's newspaper columns were a balm to the soul in a grinding era of political turmoil and perpetual stressors. He approached challenging issues with kindness, compassion and humility. He weaves gentle stories influenced by nature, travel, foxes and a love of diners and ice cream into deeper, evergreen messages resonant with the heart. -Dr. Cyndi Briggs, College of Social and Behavioral Health, Walden University Mick's writing is grounded in a particular place: Winston-Salem, North Carolina. His relaxed, conversational style invites readers into his world while challenging them to look at things from a fresh perspective. As the rest of humanity yells insults across a gaping political chasm, Mick invites everyone to join him on quiet excursions to out-of-the-way places and explores new ways of seeing. -Eddie Huffman, author of John Prine: In Spite of Himself Author InformationWinston-Salem native Mick Scott worked in the Winston-Salem Journal's editorial department for 20 years, the final five of those as editorial page editor. During that time, he churned out thousands of editorials and opinion columns on tight deadline and received numerous first- and second-place awards from the North Carolina Press Association. He's lived in four countries and visited 49 of the 50 states. He enjoys travel, reading, making art, and observing wildlife.
