      <image:caption>Atlantic Forests Ski Area (or Locke’s Hill or Amesbury Ski Tows) on Powwow Hill in Amesbury, Mass. (web photo, undated, courtesy of newenglandskihistory.com). The hill is 330 feet high, and for a time drew as many as 1000 people per day with its four tows, lights for night skiing, and well-maintained trails. The area is now the site of a small townhouse condo cluster called Atlantic View, built in 2005. My wife Rosemary and I live here, and this is the view, minus skiers, from our back windows.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Allen Ginsberg, right, with George Chigas, center, and me at the piano in the home of former Lowell City Manager William Taupier and family in Lowell following a poetry reading with Allen, Gregory Corso and writers from the community. The event at Liberty Hall/Merrimack Repertory Theater was a benefit for the new Jack Kerouac literary organization in Lowell on Monday, March 17, 1986, St. Patrick’s Day evening. George and Allen are playing a tune while Allen sings a song from his long poem “Contest of the Bards.” He sang the lines and his collaborators repeated them all the way through. (The photographer may have been George’s wife, Thida Leoung.)</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - The Many Lives of a Book</image:title>
      <image:caption>MY LONGTIME FRIEND Paul Brouillette sent this photo via Facebook as a report from the field during vacation book-surfing at Yellow House Books in Great Barrington, Mass. Atop an Underwood, a collection of Jack Kerouac's early writing that I edited, hit the streets in 1999 as a Viking Press hardcover (the Penguin paperback followed a year later), making next year the 20th anniversary. The book earned good reviews and sold well and is still in print, although I don't see it as often in stores now that so many bookstores have cut down on inventory. In the good old days there could be 15 different Kerouac titles among the K's in the fiction section. Now, it is not unusual to see On the Road and maybe two others. In niche literary communities a wider assortment of Kerouacs would likely be found. Last fall in Paris, at Shakespeare and Company on rue de la Bucherie, right in the front of the store books by Kerouac and other Beat writers filled a tall bookcase. I looked for Atop, but we had not made the cut that day. There is a French translation by Editions Denoel, although I didn't see that either. Through the years, I've gotten a big kick out of seeing the book in stores in different places, from San Francisco's City Lights to Boston shops. Every once in a while I get a letter from a reader, sometimes a student, who wants to tell me how much the book has meant to him or her. Still, it's difficult to know the impact of a book. It gets cited in certain scholarly articles and books analyzing Kerouac's work. I've seen volumes in which I expected to see it referenced but where it was left out. What to make of that? After almost 20 years, with thousands of copies in circulation, it's not unusual to see used copies for sale online or at book fairs. If you are someone fortunate enough to have published a book or several titles, then you know the special lift you get when you see the book living its life in public, away from you, having left somebody's hands in this used scenario or waiting to be picked up new, fresh from the latest printing.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - New Collaborative Poem with Kate Hanson Foster</image:title>
      <image:caption>This poem co-written with Kate Hanson Foster appears in a new anthology from Black Lawrence Press, "They Said: A Multi-Genre Anthology of Contemporary Collaborative Writing." Kate and I composed this in response to the opening of Karel Schrijver's Living with the Stars in which the author states: "Our bodies are made of the burned-out embers of stars that were released into the Galaxy in massive explosions long before gravity pulled them together to form Earth." We created the poem by sending email back and forth with additions and revisions in each version. By the end, we had achieved a unified voice. This was a new process for me although not uncommon for the writers in the 500-page anthology. I'm grateful to Kate for proposing the collaboration. We landed ourselves in good company in this volume.   </image:caption>

      <image:caption>A collection of portraits. Of family. Of heroes. Of folk. Of celebrities. Of those who shaped our lives, our places, our memories. From musicians and writers to actors and athletes, from victims and survivors to changemakers and politicians, we see the full social spectrum. Stretching back to the 1970s, these portraits-in-language include traditional renderings, sprawling treatments, snapshots, monologues, in-depth profiles, sketches, book reviews, a journal, an interview, a self-portrayal, and groups in their own frames.

From musicians and writers to actors and athletes, from victims and survivors to changemakers and politicians, we see the full social spectrum. Stretching back to the 1970s, these portraits-in-language include traditional renderings, sprawling treatments, snapshots, monologues, in-depth profiles, sketches, book reviews, a journal, an interview, a self-portrayal, and groups in their own frames.
