Literary events at WCC

Westchester Community College is presenting its Poets and Writers Series with readings in February and April. The reading, lecture, and dramatic presentation series lets the best of today’s writers share their secrets with literary aficionados. Presentations in the Gateway Building’s Davis Auditorium are free and open to the public. Each writer or performer will present two presentations during their appearances.

Steven Salvatore is a young adult author and educator who will do a reading on Thursday, February 27 at 11:00 a.m. and again at 12:30 p.m. The presentation will include selections from the debut novel, “The Other Side of Silence,” which will be published by Bloomsbury in 2021. In this work, Steven, who prefers the term queer (identifying as both gay and genderqueer) wrote about a genderqueer student who dreams of being a diva like Maria Carey. Steven teaches at Westchester Community College and Pace University.

Daniel T. Neely will discuss how to spin personal interests into viable scholarship on Thursday, April 2 at 11:00 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. Attendees will hear about his personal journey as a writer as well as how they can research and write about their interests.
