In Brother Al Stricklin Now: Memories of a Texas Pl***oy, David Stricklin tells the story of Wills’s favorite piano player. He draws on unpublished interviews recorded with Al in the 1970s and ‘80s, conversations with other Texas Pl***oys, and stories from the Stricklin family. The book covers the strange string of coincidences that brought Al to Wills’s attention, the music they shaped together, and the heartbreaks Al overcame on his way to becoming a favorite of fans far and wide.

Dr. Mark Thistlehwaite presented his forthcoming book to the Silver Frogs last month. It was an incredible discussion examining the career of Fort Worth painter, Jim Woodson.

A longtime professor of painting at Texas Christian University, Woodson influenced generations of students, and his reputation as an inspiring teacher led former President George W. Bush to seek him out as one of his art instructors.

Dr. Thistlehwaite’s book is out November 10, and can be ordered now from TCU Press. Link in bio.

Every time I left the house, Abuela made the sign of the cross and said, “Que Dios te bendiga.”

Her hands tended the vegetables and cilantro, fed the animals, carried babies, and wiped the foreheads of sick loved ones. Abuela had a way of sing-songing her way between two languages, in a time when students were not allowed to speak Spanish or Spanglish at school.
