John Yamrus on Just Start Writing, Then Never Stop Writing
John will be sharing his recent experiences as his newest releases with Anxiety Press find renewed interest in his old school beat poet inspired style. He will share samples of his work from two volumes already published this year and his soon-to-be released, "Ain't Done Yet."
Following the workshop there will be an optional writing prompt challenge.
You might be interested to know that John dedicates every book to his wife, Kathy. They live in Sinking Spring and he gives limited readings in area book stores and small venues.
