Missing in America for the past 45 years\, Rich mysteriously reappears along with his ’66 GTO convertible and coerces Dan to retrace the cross-country route he took back in ’70 to settle in a commune in Corrales\, New Mexico. \nWith Dan taking control behind the wheel and Rich in the passenger seat\, Dan recreates some of Rich’s experiences as a flower child/Jesus freak. They visit places like The Badlands\, Pine Ridge Indian Reservation\, Yellowstone\, The Grand Tetons\, Elko Nevada\, the Haight/Ashbury District\, Yosemite\, The Grand Canyon and Zion National Park in an attempt to understand the life Rich chose\, which was so drastically different from Dan’s. \nAlong the way they relive memories of the brief 18 years they shared growing up in the absence of their alcoholic father in a struggling single parent household of five kids. In exploring their relationship\, Dan confronts several personal issues surrounding the role Rich played in shaping who he is and the impact his disappearance has had on his life. \nJan Blais will be reading selections from his new novel Finding Botticelli\, and excerpts from his novels Flight Path and Twentieth Century Limited. \nFinding Botticelli begins with the theft of a sixteenth-century masterpiece from the museum of a small college west of Boston. In a bizarre twist\, the thieves leave something behind that may be far more valuable – an apparently very old\, very fine rendition of Boticelli’s Primavera. The story revolves around finding the stolen painting and discovering what the college really has on its hands – a genuine Botticelli or a clever fake. Even before tests are complete\, the impetuous Fine Arts Department Chairman barges ahead\, making the found painting\, now being called “Primavera Due\,” the centerpiece of a campaign to save the financially-troubled museum. Though fearful of embarrassing the college and wrecking her career\, the young museum director bends to his pressure and begins organizing a blockbuster exhibition to showcase Due. The story ends with a bang and a surprise. \nFlight Path is the story of a major international airline based in New York City and its confrontation with a small regional airline on the west coast. The time is 1978\, deregulation is just taking hold and aggressive new airlines are springing up everywhere\, undercutting the established airlines with low fares and service where there had been little or no competion. But despite the disruption\, confusion and threat to the bottom line\, they all must strive to maintain safe and reliable service. \nIn Twentieth Century Limited Paul Bernard\, a disabled Vietnam vet\, becomes a prize-winning reporter\, foreign correspondent and network anchorman. Long critical of the radical right\, after 9-11 Bernard attacks the Bush administration for allowing Osama bin Laden to escape and propelling the nation into a disastrous war. On assignment in Iraq\, Bernard is killed under suspicious circumstances. Interwoven with Bernard’s account of his life is an interview of his professor/mentor by a reporter profiling Bernard for The New Yorker magazine. Frustrated by Washington’s excuses\, they set about uncovering the truth behind the killing. \nOriginally from Rhode Island\, Jan Blais has lived all over the country. Last year his wife Barbara and he relocated to Gloucester where he continues to consult and write.

Her new book Merry Hell has just been released from Atelos. Her previous book\, All Revolutions Will Be Fabulous\, was released by Printing Press in 2014. Sara has performed her work widely\, including at The Berkeley Art Museum\, Grace Cathedral\, LitQuake\, and at Multifarious Array in NYC. Over the course of two years\, she and David Brazil published more than 60 issues of the seminal literary zine Try Magazine. \n\nIn Larsen’s newly released book\, MERRY HELL\, Helen of Troy exposes the “misogynist spell” of the traditional (patriarchal) narrative that condemns her for the horrors of the Trojan War and insists “LET ME TELL YOU ALL THE TRUTH OF WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO ME”. As it happened\, Helen is neither abducted by nor runs off in love with Paris\, but rejects Empire and leaves Sparta of her own volition. Helen’s story\, a heroine’s journey\, is interwoven with circumstances surrounding the Pétroleuse\, or women incendiaries\, of the 1871 Paris Commune as well as those of Occupy Oakland. As Ezra Pound states\, “All eras are contemporaneous in the mind.” \n  \n \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/sara-larsen/ LOCATION:Gloucester Writers Center\, 126 East Main Street\, Gloucester\, 01930 CATEGORIES:Events,Readings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Winter-2015-2016-314-e1476804572356.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20161205T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20161205T210000 DTSTAMP:20260426T162129 CREATED:20160112T141308Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160816T125041Z UID:6041-1480966200-1480971600@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Open Mic DESCRIPTION:Bring your words.  Get heard! \n  \nEach reader gets five minutes.  Sign up at the door. \n  \n  \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/open-mic-14-2016-12-01/ CATEGORIES:Events,Readings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/openmicgeneral.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20161205T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20161205T173000 DTSTAMP:20260426T162129 CREATED:20161025T153740Z LAST-MODIFIED:20161025T153740Z UID:7074-1480955400-1480959000@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Teen Creative Writing at the Sawyer Free Library DESCRIPTION:Share this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/teen-creative-writing-sawyer-free-library-5/ LOCATION:Sawyer Free Library\, 2 Dale Ave\, Gloucester CATEGORIES:Classes ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Teen-Creative-Writing-Flyer.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20161202T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20161202T210000 DTSTAMP:20260426T162129 CREATED:20161025T145738Z LAST-MODIFIED:20161127T003316Z UID:7058-1480707000-1480712400@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Fish Tales DESCRIPTION:Get tickets here! \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/fish-tales-8/ LOCATION:Gloucester Stage Company\, 267 East Main Street\, Gloucester\, MA\, 01930\, United States CATEGORIES:Events,Readings END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20161130T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20161130T210000 DTSTAMP:20260426T162129 CREATED:20160906T143256Z LAST-MODIFIED:20161114T201844Z UID:6983-1480534200-1480539600@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Kevin Gallagher DESCRIPTION:The crucial questions of racism\, labor rights\, and wealth-and their complex and undeniable connections are taken up by LOOM. Kevin Gallagher’s poems are excavations and reclamations of difficult American history\, elucidating prismatically the voices and sites of collusion in and resistance to the construction of our nation’s greatest institutions and our nation’s most awful crimes. \n-Danielle Legros Georges\, poet laureate of Boston \n  \n“Kevin Gallagher\, in his new book Loom\, searches through these Massachusetts mill roots and unmasks the little-known unholy alliance between capitalists of the North and slavers of the South. Gallagher does this by resurrecting a public genre of narrative poetry and then uses it to impart prosaic information (in this case history) with an effective didactic force. Aside from mnemonic considerations\, verse employed in this way by a skilled poet can effectively direct emphasis and insert emotion like no prose piece can. And Gallagher is nothing if not a skilled poet.” \n– Doug Holder\, Boston Area Small Press and Poetry Scene \nRead the full LOOM review here. \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/ryan-gallagher/ LOCATION:Gloucester Writers Center\, 126 East Main Street\, Gloucester\, 01930 CATEGORIES:Events,Readings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Screen-Shot-2016-11-14-at-11.26.59-AM.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20161128T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20161128T173000 DTSTAMP:20260426T162129 CREATED:20161025T153625Z LAST-MODIFIED:20161025T153625Z UID:7072-1480350600-1480354200@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Teen Creative Writing at the Sawyer Free Library DESCRIPTION:Share this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/teen-creative-writing-sawyer-free-library-4/ LOCATION:Sawyer Free Library\, 2 Dale Ave\, Gloucester CATEGORIES:Classes ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Teen-Creative-Writing-Flyer.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20161121T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20161121T173000 DTSTAMP:20260426T162129 CREATED:20161025T153440Z LAST-MODIFIED:20161025T153440Z UID:7070-1479745800-1479749400@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Teen Creative Writing at the Sawyer Free Library DESCRIPTION:Share this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/teen-creative-writing-sawyer-free-library-3/ LOCATION:Sawyer Free Library\, 2 Dale Ave\, Gloucester CATEGORIES:Classes ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Teen-Creative-Writing-Flyer.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20161114T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20161114T173000 DTSTAMP:20260426T162129 CREATED:20161025T153258Z LAST-MODIFIED:20161025T153258Z UID:7068-1479141000-1479144600@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Teen Creative Writing at the Sawyer Free Library DESCRIPTION:Share this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest URL:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/event/teen-creative-writing-sawyer-free-library-2/ LOCATION:Sawyer Free Library\, 2 Dale Ave\, Gloucester CATEGORIES:Classes ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://archive.gloucesterwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Teen-Creative-Writing-Flyer.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20161109T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20161109T210000 DTSTAMP:20260426T162129 CREATED:20160830T143855Z LAST-MODIFIED:20161101T141938Z UID:6979-1478719800-1478725200@archive.gloucesterwriters.org SUMMARY:Sage Walcott and Jim Seavey DESCRIPTION:Jim Seavey\, a Cape Ann native\, has been writing poetry since the mid\nsixties\, publishing occasionally\, including in 'Living Proof' by North\nShore Writers Worshop.
