I just posted a brief essay I wrote about Dwight Diller’s story telling. He was surrounded by storytellers – and music makers – from the Hammons family when he immersed himself in old-time banjo and fiddle in the late 1960s after he returned to West Virginia following his time in a USN uniform. The essay was my attempt to capture at least fragments of some of Dwight’s earliest stories. Since that essay came on the heels of the book I wrote about Dwight, it sort of got lost in the shuffle, and I only recovered it in mid-October 2025.
It's available as an eBook for 2 bucks on Amazon.Com, and a paperback for 6 bucks and change . . . Kindle Direct Publishing, an Amazon.Com resource, sets the prices according to page numbers, etc.
