Oct 8, 2018
OCTOBER 8, 2018 – FORT MYERS, FLA – Fiction author Alissa Nutting will hold a book signing and reading at 3 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 29, in Building J, Room 103 (Rush Auditorium), at the Florida SouthWestern State College (FSW) Thomas Edison Campus, 8099 College Parkway, Fort Myers. The event is free and open to the public. Her books are currently available to purchase at the FSW Thomas Edison Campus bookstore.
Alissa Nutting is an assistant professor of English at Grinnell College in Iowa. She is the author of the story collection “Unclean Jobs for Women and Girls,” as well as the novel “Tampa.” Her latest book “Made for Love: A Novel” is a poignant, riotously funny story of how far some will go for love—and how far some will go to escape it.
“We are excited to welcome another inspiring author to FSW to share her words and creativity with our students and community,” said Dr. Scott Ortolano, professor, English. “We teach one of Alissa’s stories in our Introduction to Literature course, and we are thrilled that our students will have the opportunity to meet and engage with an author they study.”
This project is presented by The Florida Literary Arts Coalition and FSW Writes, a FSW faculty group that plans writing events for FSW students, employees and the public. The project is additionally sponsored in part by the Department of State, Division of Cultural Affairs, the Florida Council of Arts and Culture and the State of Florida (Section 286.25, Florida Statutes).
