The Museum Broken Arrow to Host Book Discussion with Oklahoma Author Linda Hight
For Immediate Release: May 2, 2016


The Museum Broken Arrow will host a book discussion with author Linda Hight on May 11 at 11:30 a.m. during Wednesday Writers at The Museum Broken Arrow, 400 S. Main St. in Broken Arrow. Hight will discuss her book “How We Served.”

“How We Served” gives an inside look at the experiences of our veterans as they served our country from World War II through Operation Iraqi Freedom. The publication includes the memories, stories, thoughts and feelings of several of the men and women of the American Legion Zoal Stringer Post 226 in Coweta, Oklahoma.

Hight, a resident of Tulsa, Oklahoma, began writing “How We Served” after attending several post meetings with her husband.

“We are excited to host and listen to such a passionate author during Wednesdays Writers,” said Lori Lewis, executive director of The Museum Broken Arrow. “If you wish to hear about the creative process behind this book and the experiences and memories of our young men and women who felt compelled to do their part to help protect our country, then this is the perfect book discussion to join.”

“How We Served” will be sold strictly as a fundraiser for American Legion Zoal Stringer Post 226. The book will be available for purchase at the event. The book is free, but donations are encouraged.

Wednesday Writers is a series of presentations that allows attendees to listen to selected authors speak about the creative process and current writing. During each event the selected author will share how they harness their creative spirit to create a literary masterpiece.

Participants can either bring their lunch or pick one up from a local restaurant in the Rose District. Admission is free but donations are appreciated.
