The book presents, for the first time, the literary work of some of the best storytellers in the world: the songwriters who cut and polish tales down to sparkling three-minute gems. A blend of fiction and nonfiction, humor, and poignancy, these tales range from Kris Kristofferson&#8217;s charming tale of how an explicit natural rock formation causes chaos in a small farming town, to the true story of bluegrass founder Bill Monroe&#8217;s first visit to the White House, as told by Hazel Smith. <\/p>\n<p>Other contributors include Hal Ketchum, Janis Ian, Mark D. Sanders, Tom T. Hall, and Marshall Chapman.<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=4diWbhguwj8\">source<\/a><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nashville music publisher Robert Hicks and Justin Stelter talk about the new book they edited, A Guitar and a Pen.
