Being a Quaker Author

Jennifer Kavanagh, a British Quaker, spent nearly 30 years in publishing, mostly as a literary agent, and now works as a retreat leader and writer. In the last twenty years she has written 12 books of non-fiction and three novels.  Currently she is serving as a Friend-in-Residence at Pendle Hill.  At Swarthmore Meeting on Sunday, December 1, she will talk about the transition from literary agent to writer, the difference between writing fiction and non-fiction, and her individual process of writing. Most of all she will explore why she writes, how inspiration emerges, and how her faith informs her writing. What is a Quaker author?

This is a free event is held in the Whittier Room at Swarthmore Friends Meeting and all are welcome.  Meeting for Worship is held from 10 – 11 am.
