Kerouac
Filed under General • 20-10-2008 •
Tomorrow is the 39th anniversary of the death of my all-time favourite writer, Jack Kerouac, who died in St Petersberg, Florida of cirrhosis on October 21st, 1969, aged just 47 – and to mark the occasion, I’ve just completed the first draft of a new 4,000 word short story called Laptop Jack.

I’d LOVE to read your short story! I just published a book titled, The Beat Handbook: 100 Days of Kerouactions. Needless to say, Jack is my favorite writer, too. I blogged about his death on the anniversary at http://www.thedailybeatblog.blogspot.com.
