All a writer needs is a pen and pad... A dog pen and four padded hoofs, that is. Lowcountry authors go fetch some puppy love at tonight's book release (bow-WOW) to benefit Charleston Animal Society

Some of us live to eat, some of us write to eat, some of us live to write. If you're somewhere in the mix, take a break from 3 for $30 menu offerings and indulge at this weekend's writers' retreat

Head over to the South Carolina Aquarium Monday evening for a trifecta: see the new lemur exhibit, support sea turtle rehab and treat yourself to Mary Alice Monroe's new book, Beach House Memories
