Pulitzer Prize-winning author Rick Bragg took the stage at Georgia Southern University's Performing Arts Center for the annual Statesboro The Write Place event earlier this month. With flair and plenty of self-deprecating humor, Bragg charmed the audience as the keynote speaker during the Oct. 17 event with his conversational address and entertained by reading — and, at one point, reciting from memory — passages from his award-winning book "All Over but the Shoutin'" and his newest work, "Jerry Lee Lewis: His Own Story." Bragg took a few minutes after the event to talk to Connect Statesboro editor Brittani Howell about the new book and about his thoughts on writing as a craft and industry.
