Great Regulars: In Satori in Paris, Jack--he calls himself

by his real name in that book--sees "a half dozen eager or worried writers with their manuscripts" in the office of his French editor. They "gave me a positively dirty look when they heard my name as tho they were muttering to themselves, 'Kerouac? I can write ten times better than that beatnik maniac . . . '" But Jack, sitting there, says, "all I feel like singing is Jimmy Lunceford's old tune:

'It aint watcha do
It's the way atcha do it!'"

from Frank Wilson: Philadelphia Inquirer: Jack Kerouac's sound of America
