Epic novel ‘Memphis’ Tells a Good Black Southern Story
For Tara M. Stringfellow, Esq., the idea for her book “Memphis” started from birth. She was born a poet and when things happened in her family, she would make a note to remember it. Even if it was something bleak, with the understanding that those moments were important and something that she would need to write about.
