Jamaican novelist Garfield Ellis


Ellis will read some of his work and talk about how his fiction has grown out of his life experiences. The workshop portion of the event will focus on how writers can effectively draw on their own experiences to create fiction without being held hostage to the facts that have inspired their writing.

This event is free and open to the public. RSVP to Dotty Hayes-DiPol, in the Farquhar College of Arts and Sciences, at 954-262-8147. For more information, contact Shanti Bruce, Ph.D., associate professor, at 954-262-8355.
