About Chip Burson

Burson has been a writer, editor, story-teller, interviewer, and performance artist (license to act out) in his spare time for over fifty years. He describes himself as an 'inspired amateur professional'. He is a product of the Deep South, yet claims to be an 'accidental Yankee.’ Asked about his qualifications he says, "I am sort of a polymathic autodidact, but that sounds like a diagnosis that could get me locked up in the State Hospital; which in any event may be my eventual destination. Everyone should have a goal. I do have a driving license and a social security card. So I reckon I am credentialed to move around, and qualified to get a little check." Chip is former senior editor of Society South Magazine Auburn and producer of "Un-sung: Interviews with Un-sung Heroes and Quiet Masters.

    Words placed in the right sequence by the right author with the right insight, life experience, intelligence and grace make my heart sing. Chip Burson, this is a beautiful piece.

    How the mind is able to turn words into a visual moving thing in my brain is a mystery to me. But your words and this piece have done just that. In my mind, you were able to make this woman bittersweet, carefree, angry, sad, mad, insightful and purposeful all at once. I could feel her physical distress, her mind awakening and the dew and grass on the bottoms on my own feet.

    Brilliant. I WANT MORE STORIES FROM YOU!
