King To Speak At University Of Massachusetts



Tenley Woodman at bostonherald.com reports that Stephen King discuss his work on December 7 at the University of Massachusetts Lowell’s Tsongas Center. Author and UMass Lowell professor Andre Dubus III (“House of Sand and Fog”) will moderate the event.  This is the first of the school’s Chancellor’s Speaker Series.

King will hold a "special  master class" for UMass Lowell creative writing majors as part of his visit to the university.

On his website, King said, "Writing requires not just a creative mind and some good ideas, but also dedication to the craft. I look forward to sharing my experiences as a writer and the lessons I have learned with UMass Lowell students and the public."

King's website announced that the King's (Stephen and Tabitha) will endow a new scholarship fund in their names. King will donate his fee from the UMass Lowell appearance and at least $5 from every ticket sold for the Dec. 7 event will go to this scholarship fund.

The Boston Herald article also notes that General admission tickets are sold out, but sponsorship tickets, starting at $1,000 for two premium seats and a preshow reception with Stephen King, are available. More information HERE
