1. The Winter Edition of the Georgia Review contains 23 pages of Gainesville resident Harry Crews' writing →

    Via Maud!

    Plagued by a number of ailments in recent years, he continues to plug away at the keyboard, when his health allows.

    “The best book I got is half finished,” Crews said recently. “It’s called ‘The Wrong Affair,’ and, it’s a kick-a— book.”

    Crews said he hopes to spend 2012 doing what he’s devoted his life to: writing.

    “I don’t know when I’m going to stop,” he said. “I guess when I die.”

    You can read an excerpt of his memoir at the Georgia Review website.
