Brooding a new project

I awoke with a title in my head ... The Dying Beatnik. I think it's a play about a WOMAN beat poet, tracked down by a granddaughter she never knew she had.

The Beats, not the sixties counter-culture, offered the best alternative to the new corporate world. The 1940s and 1950s were the revolutionary decades, especially when ignored by the media, which usurps and perverts what it exploits.

A play of still revolutionary ideas ... The Dying Beatnik.

Much research to do! 5 books put on hold this morning.

A good day to be snowed in.
