About Us
We are a husband and wife team who, after 30 years of marriage, are embarking on our first book-writing project.
Our inspiration and the topic of our book is a little dive bar in Savannah, Georgia, called “The Original Pinkie Masters”. It has a history worth sharing and we’re having a blast putting it all together.
Steve Kays
Research, Interviews, Writing
Steve enjoys history, music, fishing, reading, and traveling. He discovered Pinkie Masters shortly after moving to Savannah and it quickly became his neighborhood bar. The people embraced him there like no other place he’s been across the country. Southern hospitality is a real thing in Savannah. The history of the bar piqued his interest and when he found out that no book existed about it, he announced to his wife, “We’re going to write the book on Pinkie Masters.”
Dani Kays
Writing, Layout & Design, Marketing
Dani loves traveling, taking pictures, reading, and going for walks in Savannah’s Historic District. After having emergency open heart surgery in the Fall of 2020, the already-planned move to Savannah was a genuine lifesaver. Walking through the gorgeous squares, admiring the trees with their dripping Spanish moss, learning the history of the city….all of these contributed to a speedy recovery. With a new appreciation for life itself, Dani began thinking of a way to leave her mark – a lasting impression, a legacy of sorts. Maybe a photo book? She didn’t skip a beat when Steve made his declaration – a book about Savannah’s iconic dive bar would be fun to write!
