Author Jill McCorkle is part of the generation of writers who have defined contemporary Southern literature. Her early heroines were wise-cracking ambitious young ladies who grew into wise-cracking ambitious women. Her newest short story collection is called “Going Away Shoes,” and it features a long, deep look at what happens to those plucky Southern women when they hit middle age. Jill McCorkle stops by to read from her latest collection and reflect on the writing life of a Southern woman.
