Remembering Minnie Pearl... feat. Mary Beth Pruett

Today we are remembering the late great, Minnie Pearl.


HOOOOOWWWWDDEE! We are just so proud to be here today with a special guest!

Born and raised a Tennessee farm girl, Mary Beth Pruett still lives on the farm started by her great-great grandfather. She loves horses and dogs, reading and good music! She doesn't remember a time that she did not want to be a writer. She has been writing her whole life, but ended up a librarian. Mary Beth also happens to be the great niece of Sara Ophelia Cannon, better known as Minnie Pearl. Mary Beth is a wealth of knowledge and history not just with her Great Aunt but also with the history of Centerville/Hickman County, Tennessee.

Her book “Turn by the Red Calf” details adventures and misadventures on her ancestral Tennessee farm and musings from life and daily observations. Pruett has a wry and often humorous perspective on the pleasures and pitfalls of living in an old farmhouse with four lively dogs and trying to keep tabs on a farm approaching the two century mark.

I was looking for affordable essay writing services and came across a site that offers not only high-quality papers but also great discounts. Whether you're a first-time customer or a returning one, they have several deals that can help reduce the cost of your order. I found my paper help promo code it very helpful to take advantage of these discounts, especially with multiple assignments piling up.
