Club well-versed in joys of poetry
Poetry is as timeless as language itself and a local group offers a supportive forum for poets, both novice and accomplished. Since 1937, Poetry Scribes of Spokane have met to share poems, offer feedback and indulge in their love of verse. “The first time I walked in I was scared silly,” said Scribes president Kathleen Schrum, who joined four years ago. “I’d never read my work to anyone other than my dog or my husband.” Schrum said she wrote poems in her head for years before she ever put one on paper. Now, her work is published regularly and she said 90 percent or more of their members have been published, as well. The Scribes have a rich history in Spokane/Cindy Hval, SR. More here.
