    Enjoyed this interview, Ann. Nice, nice, nice. Especially like your comment about the line between fiction and non-fiction.

    Good to hear, Sam. Russell interviewed me a year ago for Poet's Corner. In that time, the link disappeared for Jeff Hansen's audio interview about my stories at Big Bridge. Jeff says he'll get the mp3 to me. I'll figure out how to post it somewhere.

    Ann, a very good interview-- both of you took risks which made it extremely interesting to read. BTW, your poem that starts with opal eyes is a knockout

    Great, thoughtful, intriguing interview. Thinking about this, this morning: "For me, “the frontier” in so-called experimental writing relates to fact, to memory (how memory is presented), to time (including but not limited to chronology), and to point of view, to narration itself. The musicality, rhythm, and syntax of language also matter." Thanks.

    You had me at "Poets are “my people,” and I prefer an audience of poets when I give a fiction reading as well"...

    Ann, this was such an interesting, educational, fascinating interview. Opal Eyes is terrific too. And the whole concept of the 20K prize and what you spun from it.. is a wow.

    Thanks to those of you who read this interview! I'm used to a very fast turnaround time on the internet, and this was one year. I had forgotten about it, then remembered, then wondered if my answers would still hold a year later. The interview came at the suggestion of Russell Bittner. I think he thought I was more of a self-identified poet than I am (though I hope it's clear that poetry is in my blood as a reader).

    The poem "This Is Why I Loved You" and the story "Po-cash" are at Fictionaut.

    Thanks again!
