A quote from the author that speaks to the theme of home. It reads: I'm learning in my poems that home is both reflection and entrance—a place where identity and belonging are formed, challenged, and redefined. Home is also both a birthplace and an archive and I realize I'm walking through my mother's wounds and my parents' childhoods as I live—they're actually my first house.

SUNY Oswego's Living Writers Series starts strong next Wednesday, September 3, with a virtual visit from author and cartoonist Teresa Wong! Hear Wong share valuable insights about her life and work from 3-4:20pm on Zoom. The event is free and open to all! Learn more by visiting the link in our bio.

The cover of Wong's novel "All Our Ordinary Stories" appears on the center of the image. Above, there is an explanation that the theme for this year's Living Writers Series is the concept of home. Below is a quote from the author that says: At its root, my book, All Our Ordinary Stories, is an exploration of what home means, and whether those of us who are part of a diaspora can ever really know where we come from. For me, home is not just one place, and it includes my birth country (Canada), my parents' homeland (China), the suburban malls I hung out in as a kid, the music that speaks to me, and the stories of my ancestors.
