Reasons to be Happy by Katrina Kittle<\/p><\/div>\n

March marks the beginning of Women\u2019s History Month and Wright State is kicking off its celebration by playing host to a panel of four local women, all of whom are authors of young adult fiction.<\/p>\n

Writers Katrina Kittle, Trudy Krisher, Kristina McBride and Sharon Short will speak in the Millett Hall Atrium on Tuesday, March 5, at 2 p.m..<\/p>\n

All of these women have pushed the boundaries of young adult fiction through their recent publications. In their own ways, these women have reshaped the genre through their unique perspectives and distinct voices.<\/p>\n

According to Stephanie Bange, director of the Educational Resource Center, this is the first time Wright State is hosting a panel of this type.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wanted to kick off Women\u2019s History Month by celebrating four local women, all strong and gifted at their craft,\u201d said Bange. \u201cThey will express their thoughts about their craft and how it has affected their lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

The panel discussion is unique because it is co-sponsored by three groups: the Department of English Creative Writing Program Committee, the Women\u2019s Center and the Educational Resource Center.<\/p>\n

Wright State and the larger Miami Valley community to join us as we celebrate literature for young adults,\u201d said Bange.<\/p>\n

Attendees are strongly encouraged to participate in the dialogue. This event will give aspiring writers and literature enthusiasts a chance to ask questions about the authors\u2019 work, experiences, challenges, backgrounds and the publication process.<\/p>\n

\u201cEach of these women has become friends through their work and has great respect and admiration for one another,\u201d said Bange. \u201cI think that will come through in their answers.\u201d<\/p>\n

A reception and book signing will take place after the panel discussion. Selected titles by each author will be available for sale by the Wright State Bookstore.
