Writing Now, Reading Now Series
This collection contains recordings from the Writing Now, Reading Now Series (formerly the Poetry and Fiction Reading Series) co-sponsored by Wichita State University Libraries, the Department of English, Department of Women's Studies, Watermark Books & Cafe, and the Ulrich Museum of Art.
This series, held throughout the spring and fall semesters, provides visiting poets and fiction writers, distinguished faculty members, and student writers with the opportunity to showcase their work. It is also an opportunity for published authors to sell and sign copies of their book(s). The readings are open to the public and take place at the Ulrich Museum of Art and Ablah Library's Lower Level.
For more information, contact Margaret Dawe, WSU Director of the Creative Writing Program, at margaret.dawe@wichita.edu or (316) 978-6410.
