Dr. Donna Coffey Little is a Professor of English at Reinhardt University and founded Reinhardt’s Etowah Valley Low-Residency MFA in Creative Writing. Her historical novel Wofford's Blood was published by Mercer University Press in 2024. It was named Book of the Year by the Southern Literary Review and Best Historical Novel of 2024 by the national Independent Press Association.
