FEMRITE Uganda wish to kindly invite and inform the public that the Femrite Guest of the Month will be David Godwin, A major literary agent based in the UK but representing writers from all over the world. He will be hosted at Femrite  on 16th June, 2014, Femrite Courtyard, 5.30 to 7.30pm.

FEMRITE - Uganda Women Writers Association was founded by Hon. Mary Karoro Okurut in 1995. Hon. Karoro is currently the President of FEMRITE, a position that was conferred upon her to recognize her contribution as the Founding Mother of the organization. Indeed, she is fondly called Mother-Hen by all members of FEMRITE. The First Meeting that gave birth to FEMRITE was held in Mary's Office at Makerere University where she was at the time a lecturer in the Literature Department.

Since her inception, FEMRITE members have worked together to develop their writing, and to promote reading and writing. An organisation that started from very humble beginnings has trained women who have gone on to win or get onto shortlists for nationally, regionally and internationally celebrated literary awards.
