Noon Forum - Professor to Fiction Writer
The Noon Forum for Wednesday, December 10, 2025 will be presented by Professor of German, Dr. Ginny Lewis. Her topic is "From Professor to Fiction Writer".
Dr. Lewis imagined she would be slipping out of the professor role she played for 37 years when she retired and turned her attention to writing contemporary fiction. Instead, she discovered her readers and YouTube audience still latch onto the professor in her when she writes and presents. Once a professor, always a professor!
The Noon Forum is held in the NSU Beulah Williams Library Round Room from 12-1pm on Wednesdays and is sponsored by the College of Arts and Sciences.
This and all forums are free and open to the public.
