The Department of Language Studies and the Arts invites the community to attend a literature reading featuring author Jennifer Maritza McCauley from 12:30 to 1:20 p.m., on Wednesday, February 5, on the first floor of the Daniel A. Cannon Memorial Library.
McCauley earned her Master of Fine Arts degree from Florida International University and is studying for her doctorate in creative writing from the University of Missouri.

Her collection of poetry and prose, Scar On/Scar Off, was published in 2017 by Stalking Horse Press, and she has written a historical novel. In addition, she has been published in a variety of literary journals and is poetry editor currently of Missouri Review and fiction editor of Pleiades.
English majors, writing enthusiasts, readers, and creative minds are urged to attend. The event is free and open to the public, as well.
