Nationally known columnist Carole Townsend, author of the new and acclaimed humor book, Southern Fried White Trash, has added to her spring book signing tour by holding a book signing in Alpharetta, Ga. on Saturday March 17st, 2012 from 1 pm to 4 pm at Barnes & Noble. The book store is located at 7660 North Point Parkway Suite 200 in Alpharetta, GA. Southern Fried White Trash, Townsend’s debut book, draws on humorous real life stories of people she has observed over the years. Broken into sections that cover weddings, funerals, the holidays, and much more, Townsend brings a distinctly Southern perspective to stories that will leave readers rocking with laughter. The book has drawn critical acclaim from across the country. Townsend and the book have been featured on CNN, MSNBC.com, the Los Angeles Times, Erie Times, Aniston star and countless media outlets across the United States.
“I am thrilled to be doing a book signing at Barnes & Noble. I know readers will think of characters that they have encountered in their own lives when reading the book. The whole purpose of this book is to bring a smile and some laughter into readers’ lives, especially in these difficult times,” said Townsend.
In the spirit of not only Southern humor but literary humor over the years brought to us by writers and comics like Lewis Grizzard, Jeff Foxworthy, Erma Bombeck, and Bret Butler, Southern Fried White Trash is a must-read for not only tried-and true Southern enthusiasts but anyone who loves to laugh at life’s insanity. It has a twist, though. Townsend satirizes real life through the eyes of a Southerner, born and raised. Carole Townsend is a highly regarded news correspondent and columnist for the Gwinnett Daily Post and has also appeared in such publications as Lady’s Home Journal and others. A married mom and former Fortune 500 corporate executive brought up by an old-school Southern mother, the author brings a hilarious perspective to old-vs-new life in the South.
Townsend will be available for autographed copies of Southern Fried White Trash in the Barnes & Noble book store from 1 pm to 4 pm. The book is sure to be a favorite for anyone who enjoys good humor . Townsend is currently writing her second book, Red Lipstick and Clean Underwear, that is a “painfully humorous survival guide to successfully navigating life as a woman.” Red Lipstick and Clean Underwear takes a humorous but sharply accurate look at how women were taught to view and prepare for life as young girls, vs. the reality of being a woman and handling all that women do, every day, day in and day out. As adults, women are expected to handle, juggle, balance, earn, mother and be caregivers. The new book will be released in June 2012.
