She writes regularly for the Smoky Mountain Sentinel and Clay County Progress, and continues to publish in literary magazines.

Shew Bird Mountain, with its valley view, mountain horizon cover, begs to sit on coffee tables. It would attract anyone visiting, or when nostalgia strikes. There are 22 poems in this second collection by Brenda Kay Ledford.

Brenda earned her Master of Arts in Education from Western Carolina University, and studied Journalism at the University of Tennessee and Tri-County Community College.
