WordsWest Literary Series is a monthly series that invites writers, readers, and the West Seattle community to take literary joyrides as passengers and drivers. 

Every third Wednesday, 7pm, at C & P Coffee Company, WordsWest hosts literary events that range from readings by published local and national authors, to craft discussions and guided writing explorations for every experience level. Folks from local, independent businesses join each event by reciting a favorite poem. 

WordsWest is curated by West Seattle writers Katy E. Ellis, Susan Rich, and Harold Taw.
