Literary PursuitsWith a strong and supportive arts community, writers of
all kinds — novelists, playwrights, poets, screenwriters and journalists
among them — flourish in the Lower Cape Fear region. Who couldn't be
moved to rapturous prose by the breathtaking beauty of this coastal
region or see opportunity in the overwhelming presence of the dramatic
arts and the film industry. But the writing life is a solitary one, so
it's no surprise that aspiring authors and poets seek out nightspots
that satisfy twin desires: companionship and the need to share their
work. Writers are naturally avid readers, so book discussion groups,
poetry readings or a cappuccino with fellow writers are all part of the
literary nightlife in coastal Carolina. Barnes & Noble Booksellers The cafe at Barnes & Noble, a popular spot for both
seasoned and would-be scribes, ensures there's enough caffeine at hand
to chase the muse. Past events have included family-friendly poetry
readings, writers group meetings and book clubs. Check B & N's monthly
schedule for these and other literary events and local book-signings. |
