Way to go Tammy!!!

We’re delighted to announce that Tammy Davis has been selected as the recipient of the Fall 2026 Pat Conroy Literary Center Writers’ Residency!

Tammy was selected through a competitive application process by the residency’s selection committee. The Conroy Center Writers’ Residency provides an opportunity for a selected writer to spend a week immersed in their craft at MarshSong Cottage on St. Helena Island, in the heart of Pat Conroy’s beloved Lowcountry.

Tammy Davis is a South Carolina writer and educator based in Columbia. Her work has appeared in national publications, and for three years she wrote a weekly newspaper column distributed to publications across South Carolina. She also writes about travel, history, and the South on Substack.

A lifelong educator, Tammy has worked in public and private schools and adult education and currently serves as a historical interpreter at the Lexington County Museum. Her first novel, Some Birds, An Almost Love Story, is set beside the black water of Lake Marion and explores love, family, and the ways one person’s choices can shape the lives of everyone who loves them.

Tammy’s residency will take place October 20–27, 2026, coinciding with the 11th Annual Pat Conroy Literary Festival, October 23–25, which she will also be invited to attend.

Please join us in congratulating Tammy Davis and welcoming her to the Conroy Center Writers’ Residency!

Take a minute for your feet. 🦶✨

Sway. Splay. Lift. Rock. Wiggle those toes.

Our feet carry us through our entire lives, and we rarely give them the attention they deserve. Slow down, notice them, move them, and appreciate everything they do for you.

Your feet deserve a little tlc, too. 💛

Today, Keisha Chestnut from WIS TV came to Fit Columbia to explore our yoga wall!

I loved introducing her to a different way to experience yoga. Using straps, blocks, wheels and ropes, the yoga wall gives you support to explore poses with more stability, deepen stretches, build strength and mobility, and even experience supported inversions.

Imagine a downward dog without wrist pain or a Warrior II without knee discomfort. The wall can take pressure off certain areas of the body while still allowing you to move, stretch and strengthen.

That’s one of my favorite things about it—it can make some movements more accessible while making others surprisingly challenging. And honestly, it’s just FUN to try something completely different.

Keisha was a natural, and we had the best time. I can’t wait to see the segment! ❤️

Join us for a guided nature walk along a section of the Gills Creek floodplain. We’ll check out our floodplain restoration work, and appreciate the birds and plants that thrive is this natural space. We’ll have binoculars to share from our friends at Midlands Nature and Bird Alliance. The walk will be along a paved road, so accessibility is good. RSVP on our website! www.gillscreekwatershed.org
