If you want to write crime novels but you got your literary start as a travel-news columnist and chick lit author, you might do what Serena Mackesy did, take on a pseudonym and live the life of Alex Marwood. Alex hails from South London and will be in the Lowcountry on November 19^th as the guest author for the USCB Lunch With Author Series.

The Society of Bluffton Artists presents “The Lowcountry Palette” a collection of newly created oil and watercolor paintings by noted local artist, Terry Brennan. This enchanting exhibit will be on display now through Nov. 30 at the SOBA Gallery.
