photo:Glenda Beall, Katie, Estelle Rice at Coffee with the PoetsNetwest was happy to welcome Rebecca, an eleventh grade student, to CWP this month. She and her mother, Nicole, came for the first time and we hope it won't be the last. Rebecca enjoys writing stories, but she also had written an excellent poem which she read to the crowd in Crumpets Dessertery.
Once again, Katie and her family which includes her twin sister, Corey, were present. Someone commented about the father and mother who come each time to hear Katie read her poetry. If all children had this kind of support from their parents they would have more confidence in themselves and their talents would expand more quickly.
We hope Katie and Rebecca and their families will come back every chance they get. Students are always welcome at Coffee with the Poets held on the fourth Wednesday of each month at Phillips and Lloyd Book shop on the square in Hayeville, NC. 10:30 a.m.
We so enjoy coffee with the poets!! Netwest is a true blessing to us!
