JS Moore believes in the preservation of history, oral traditions, and the stories of the common people. What began as a collection of stories to pass along to his own family and friends about local flavor and happenings in the past century has blossomed into a cultural awakening of tales from a region steeped in tradition, superstition, and hard work. Gathering Leaves is a collection of short stories about characters from all over Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia. Expanding from his first book in the Series, Understanding Apples, JS Moore has invited a wide array of talented authors, artists, and photographers from every generation of the past 100 years to give their take in this compilation of Appalachian narratives. Gathering Leaves proves we all have a story within us to tell. But we must seek the courage to share it.
