I’m happy to be interviewed by Dave Housley, one of the
editors over at Barrelhouse, which is a wonderful literary journal and also a
literary empire, responsible for—among many things—organizing and hosting one
of my favorite one-day writing conferences: Conversations & Connections.
I’m
excited to be taking part as a speaker at the Pittsburgh conference, which will
be held on October 10 this year. Participants receive a free book, a literary
journal subscription, enjoy a day of panels about writing and publishing, and
have the chance to meet with lit journal editors…and to top it all off,
continue the conversation over Boxed Wine Happy Hour! There is space available
if this sounds as irresistible to you as it is to me! (Oh, and only $70 for all
of this!)
Okay, the interview! I’ll only give a short teaser here because
I say lots of things about writing and about my new book. But I also answer
this question:
Okay, we need to wrap up with the standard Barrelhouse interview finisher: What’s your favorite Patrick Swayze movie?
You know you (vaguely) want to know, if only to pick a fight
about my choice!
