A Mixture of Coffee, Poetry and Kerouac at November Meeting

Coffee, poetry and Kerouac filled the air Tuesday evening at the Attoyac Writers' Guild November meeting. As members and visitors gathered at the Attoyac River Gallery, they were greeted to another world - one of poetry and prose - eloquent words from Robert Anderson's original poem "Evergreen" and the fascinating Life and Works of Jack Kerouac presented by Nancy Fox.

Robert Anderson read his original poem "Evergreen" at the guild's first Poetry Reading Night.


Nancy Fox presented Jack Kerouac's Life and Works at the guild meeting, which included an informative discussion on Kerouac's "Essentials of Spontaneous Prose" and on the collection of his autobiographical novels, prose, poetry, buddhist writings and dreams.
