The seventh year of the Write Thing Reading Series at Medaille College will begin with fiction writer Neal Chandler on Thursday, September 18 at 7 p.m. in the Huber Hall Library on Medaille’s Main Campus at Rt. 198 and Parkside in Buffalo.
Chandler is the Director of the Creative Writing Program at Cleveland State University. His published work includes Benediction: A Book of Stories; Appeal to a Lower Court, a three act play; and stories and essays in several magazines and journals. He is the former co-editor, with his wife Rebecca, of Dialogue: A Journal of Mormon Thought.
The Write Thing Reading Series is the premiere visiting artist series among Buffalo’s educational institutions. Each semester, Medaille invites poets and fiction writers to campus for readings. Students at Medaille have the unique chance to meet up close and personal with Pulitzer Prize winners, National Book Award finalists, Guggenheim Fellowship recipients, and some of the most renowned international writers of today – as well as up-and-coming younger writers.
