The English department’s “Write, Southerners!” reading series will continue this spring with three visiting writers. First up this week is Maurice Carlos Ruffin, author of “Ones Who Don’t Say They Love You” and the New York Times Editor’s Choice novel “We Cast a Shadow.” He will read from his work and answer questions on Feb. 23, 4:30 p.m., in Merrill Hall’s auditorium. Admission is free and open to the public.
