Join us November 7th at noon in Cotter Café for the next Faculty PubTalk: Chris Michener’s “A Life of Lies”. Dr. Michener says “fiction, in essence, is a lie.  An author relates a series of events that did not actually happen—except in his or her imagination.  Readers, then, willingly suspend their disbelief.”He will reflect on his own experience in telling such lies.  What draws him to the act of fiction making?  How does he come to tell the stories?  How does it affect who he is?  What is it like to live a life of lies?

Faculty Pub is about supporting faculty who are working on writing projects and the PubTalk series embodies this with faculty who talk about their writing progress, process, and results. And the talks will generally be short with lots of opportunities for discussion. Refreshments will include Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake Muffins and Cranberry bars.
