In addition to practicing law, Reggie Blackledge has written a book titled Lines of Gray.  The book is about a murder trial in a small Mississippi town.  Reggie is currently editing on the book, but if you are interested, feel free to contact him.  Reggie also tries his hand at poetry.  As with Lines of Gray, if you are interested in Reggie's poetry, let him know. 

Before going to law school, Reggie Blackledge worked for 10 years as a Radiologic Technologist.  Reggie quit work, took out loans, and drove 135 miles a day round trip to law school in Jackson, MS.  Reggie wanted to be a lawyer and was willing to make the sacrifices, but without the support of his wife and family he couldn't have done it.

While Reggie's classmates were looking for high paying jobs in prestigious firms, Reggie always knew he wanted to be a country lawyer in his  hometown of Collins.  It isn't easy, but it's home, and Reggie wouldn't trade it for the world.
