As its name suggests, the In Print Festival of First Books is a two-day event bringing writers who have just published their first books as well as an editor from a small press or literary journal to campus to give readings, talk about their experiences getting published, and work with our students.
The festival will be at 7:30 p.m. Monday and Tuesday, March 22-23, in the Arts and Journalism Building (room 175). For information on guest writers and editors, please visit the University Calendar.
