The Sigma Tau Delta students, who hosted Thursday night's keynote event, posing before anyone showed up.
Some of them wanted to take a "funny" picture. The rest just acted normal. This is the result.
Dr. Shurbutt giving Silas the 2009 Appalachian Heritage Award. The plaque has this wonderful quotation from Clay's Quilt: "He had spent his whole life listening to stories from the past, and now he had his own, and it was slowly building, chapter by chapter."
Silas talking about the winning story from the West Virginia Fiction Writer's competition. It works like this: a panel of judges (including yours truly) narrows the pool down to about 10 stories and then the writer-in-residence picks the winner and two runner ups. This year's winning story, "Ruined Water" by Natalie Sypolt, is an amazing story.
Silas giving his keynote, "The History of Every Country."

More questions.
Another question, this time from the President herself.
After the event, Silas posed for a picture with the STD students.
