J. T. Lozano is a horror
author who hails from Mission, a small border town in Deep South Texas. He is the youngest in his family, which
consists of four other siblings; two boys and two girls. Although J.T. resides in Mission, he was born
in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico and moved here at the age of three. He began
writing in 2007 using poetry as a form of self-expression and wrote his first
story shortly after that. Since the year
in which the writing bug bit, J.T. has written well over 30 poems and half a
dozen books, with some short stories.
The ideas constantly fill his head and if you ask how long he plans to
write he will simply answer; “I’ll keep writing as long as you keep reading.”

ebook editions so bring along your ereaders to download after you have met with
J.T. and heard about his stories.

“Rio Grande Valley ABC”
Rickey E. Pittman, storyteller,
author, and folksinger
Friday,
July 28th 1 to 3 PM
Along the banks of the mighty Rio Grande River lies the heart of Southern Texas—the Rio Grande Valley. Steeped in tradition at the crossroads between the United States and Mexico, the Valley’s residents have established a unique way of life, honoring their past and reaching for their future.
Brought to life through rhyming text and vivid
illustrations, the sights and sounds of the Rio Grande Valley fill every page,
from the flight of the aplomado falcon to the ride of Antonio
Zapata and everything in between.
In addition to the shared history of Mexican and
Texas battles and triumphs, author Rickey Pittman details daily life in the
Magic Valley, displaying the delight of a daughter’s quinceañera and
the spirit of mariachi music. Illustrator Julie Dupre Buckner captures the hues
of Valley life, from the bright butterflies gracing the grasslands to the clear
night sky shining with stars.
The history and the heart of the Valley and its
inhabitants, both human and animal, fill every page of this informative and
essential book.
Pittman strives to find and share the forgotten and
neglected stories and people of history and legend and bring them to life before
his audiences. Whether you seek a song to touch your heart, a book to
instruct your children, or a motivating and entertaining program, this
bard of the South has good things to share.
Rickey
E. Pittman, often called “The Bard of the South”, is an award-winning

level freshman composition and literature. Pittman is a tireless performer,
constantly conducting appearances at schools, libraries, festivals,
conventions, and workshops, including many in the Rio Grande Valley. A
certified secondary gifted English teacher, originally from Dallas, Texas, he
claims the Rio Grande Valley as his second home. Pittman loves and appreciates
the Rio Grande Valley, its history, its culture and its people.
