  • I wish i could have had the chance to be taught by him

  • I like how you've manage to point out someone's foolish behaviour and misspell "Ginsberg" in the same sentence. I also like the fact no-one else seems to have picked up on this. Bravo!

  • PS I also like my grammatical error... I suppose that's what this film is about... that will teach me!

  • The film isn't about your own personal opinion of it so why include that?

  • @EyeforAyler Misspelling a word doesn't make you a fool.

  • check out the videos from the latest Festival of California Poets on our page!

  • Thanks.

  • i like allen ginsburg!

  • It seems *fools* in the title gets it right. This guy didn't want to listen. It took Ginsburg three times to get the idea expressed. He had to say once, "Will you let me finish one sentence." If he didn't know the word, maybe there is a reason. He should reflect on it, picture it, expand on it and describe it.

  • I have a 45 minute video that I took this from. It aired in Gainesville, FL in the 80's on public access.... I could post more but I don't want to get in trouble. It has a bunch of great footage of Charles Thompson and Ginsburg just shooting the shit about Kerouac and life in general. Good stuff.

  • that'd be great to see if you could post it! but yeah try not to get in trouble for doing that haha.

  • please do post this.  If not maybe you could upload it to a free host and pm the link?

    Thanks,

  • Using Kerouac's belief and technique for modern prose; for me the most important quality of writing processes, not thinking "words" but but pictures. It works.

  • "Finish it there and then. Take the energy you have at the time of writing and pursue it..." So simple and so true (I guess that equals profundity), and a standard sadly so easy to fall away from.

  • very good advice. writing feels best when you're able to flow.

  • couldn't agree more. But I do think everyone has his or her own way of dealing with the creative process.
