So proud of the student poets from my Creative Writing class at Germanna Community College

Image
I am proud of all the students in my Creative Writing class at Germanna Community College for stretching themselves in four genres! But I have to say I am especially proud of the eight who read during yesterday’s poetry reading at Germanna-Fredericksburg, cosponsored by the Poetry Society of Virginia. They did a great job and for many if not all it was their first time reading their own writing before a public audience. (from left to right: Deborah Gerhardt, Jessie Harper, Jonni Hower, Anthony Martinez, Brianna Colon, Gerard Puckerin, Harris PlesKovitch, Lecsi Pillar) And appreciation to Jordan Norris and Isaiah Cabino in joining their classmates in the audience and giving rousing support as each took the stage.
