On Thursday, Aug. 23, several members of the Holmes Goodman Campus Creative Writing class went on a fieldtrip to Oxford to attend a book reading and Q&A session with David Joy about new book, “The Line That Held Us.” His editor and friend, Ace Atkins, was also part of the session. William Moorer, the class instructor, took his students to the event which was held at the famous Square Books in downtown Oxford. The trip was not only for entertainment purposes; it was also an opportunity for the creative writing class to meet and hear the testimony of a published author.
