@congdonsation @TrevorHass Dragon TV first recognized the talent we all see. Great story.

[Doug Segrest @dsegrest]

@Bama591 Great series win but our entire focus last night was on the NCAA Tournament. A lot to get in with four state teams dancing.

[Doug Segrest @dsegrest]

Can't think of anyone more deserving. Congrats, Kevin!

A day that means more to me than you will ever know. Being inducted into the @USBWA Hall of Fame. Being honored as the 🏀 guy in a 🏈 state. Seeing so many friends I made along the way. Thank you to all of you who let me tell your stories. We made memories. Let's make more.

NCAA Tournament returns to Birmingham for the first time in 15 years with 2 No. 1 seeds (Alabama and Houston) as well as Auburn as a 9 seed. We could have these 2nd-round games Saturday: Alabama-West Virginia and Auburn-Houston. IT DOES NOT GET ANY BETTER THAN THAT, PEOPLE!

Thank you, Wade!

Storm is back for three more shows! What a great run it has been. https://t.co/hragHa0hsn

@MikeOrganWriter @Tennessean Joe was a friend, a mentor and, like Fred Russell before him, a powerhouse at the Nashville Banner. My greatest memories were off the field, playing softball together for a loaded @OCharleys team. We'll miss you, Bid.

@spann Coach, you’ve got much bigger pull up here than I do.

[Doug Segrest @dsegrest]

Bad news, Coach James. Bo and I are at #Fenway to help the Braves take down your Bosox again. @spann

The story I never wanted to write. A great man and a great coach steps down for health reasons. End of an incredible era. @CoachBillClark @UAB_FB

Congrats, @TomArenberg. As good an editor as you’ll find anywhere, and I was lucky enough to work with for two decades.

We are just a couple of hours away from the beginning of Storm's second week at the Wetumpka Depot. Really appreciate Jacqueline Viskup letting Kristy Meanor and I share how this project made it from the page to screen.

Thank you, Michael Howley, for your thoughtful insight.

[Doug Segrest @dsegrest]

"An important new play receiving spontaneous standing ovations has opened at the Wetumpka Depot. Kristy Meanor's assured adaptation of Doug Segrest's debut novel A Storm Came Up tackles sensitive subjects that were prominent in the Jim Crow South."
