It’s raining and flooding all over South Bend, so get your canoe or raft or kayak or paddleboard or whatever it is you us, because a reading will be held anyway! So if it’s Monday night at 7:30 PM, come dry off in the warmth of the Hammes Campus bookstore and hear some groundbreaking fiction […]
Spring training is starting, thus marking the beginning of baseball season. I haven’t asked around, but I bet it’s safe to assume that each and every one of us in the Creative Writing Program is equally as excited as I am.
