Margaret Verble Offers An Authentic Journey Inside Cherokee America

Author Margaret Verble, an enrolled citizen of the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma, is set to appear at the 2019 Kentucky Women Writers Conference this week. In this installment of Bookmarks, she speaks with conference director Julie Wrinn about capturing an authentic take on Native American culture — in ways that are both universal and surprising. 

The conference runs from September 19-22.
