Come listen to the second MFA reading of the semester on Wednesday, November 13th. Readers will include Proph Dauda, Adalyne Perryman, and Vince Vasudevan. Proph Dauda is a writer and dog breeder who, for the most part, was raised by American missionaries at the Passion Center for Children in the small town of Zomba, Malawi. He taught History and Literature for five years at a private secondary school founded by the Scottish missionaries, the Henry Henderson Institute in Blantyre, Malawi. In his spare time, he volunteered as a Kennel Attendant at Blantyre Society for the Protection and Care of Animals (BSPCA). Later, he enrolled in Auburn University’s Master of Arts in English program. At Auburn, he served as a Teaching Assistant for core Literature, as well as the Assistant Managing Editor for the Southern Humanities Review, a graduate student-run literary magazine. His writing explores cultural values, social stratum, superstition, and the experiences of migrants arriving on the shores of America. His fiction has appeared in the Kansas State University’s Touchstone Literary Magazine. In 2023, his poetry received an honorable mention for the Robert Hughes Mount Jr. Prize in Poetry, sponsored by the Academy of American Poets at Auburn University. In the same year, he served as a judge for the Poetry Out Loud Contest for Auburn High School in Alabama.Adalyne Perryman graduated from SUNY Oneonta. In between, she worked to put together the Adirondack Family Book Festival, bringing a list of awarded and diverse writers to upstate New York. She enjoys analyzing the connection between truth and memory in her spare time while internalizing all the beauty the world can offer! She's a big fan of a good train ride, the trees, and lakes.Vince Vasudevan (he/him) is a multiracial speculative fiction writer interested in the intersection between literary and genre stories. A jack of all trades, Vince earned his B.A. in History at Virginia Tech and double-minored in Physics and National Security/Foreign Affairs. As a result, he has worn many different hats in industry, and is currently a first reader for James Gunn's Ad Astra. Vince is teaching at the Novel Architects Workshop this summer, led by Kij Johnson and Barbara Webb. His future goal is to be a university-level educator. Vince writes futures so he can believe in a tomorrow.
