Pushed me to order the book without further delay. I also can't wait to see what this exploration does to your own work, poised as it as, along the borders of history and fiction. C.L. Lewis's comment, "Sometimes you need to tell a fairytale to tell the truth," seems to apply to this realm too.Morganhttp://thefirstgates.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4141806273987183665.post-62999667496693844972011-05-09T07:15:41.162-07:002011-05-09T07:15:41.162-07:00Christina, glad you enjoyed the interview.

I loved Three Rivers Rising and felt that the verse format was so key to getting to the emotional core of each scene. <br /><br />And yay for giving boy names to girls!

As one who read (and reviewed) her book earlier, it was fascinating to me to learn about her writing process, since writing a novel in verse seems like it would be so daunting! I found it interesting how much screenwriting affected her novel writing. I'm bookmarking this particular post because it is so rich in good advice for writers. Thank you for such a good interview that yielded such nuggets of wisdom, and helped a reader get better acquainted with this lovely author.Elizabeth Varadan, Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01708206753256682635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4141806273987183665.post-9943035220069820342011-05-08T07:56:36.893-07:002011-05-08T07:56:36.893-07:00This is one of the best, in-depth and interesting ...This is one of the best, in-depth and interesting author interviews I've had the pleasure of readying. Jame Richards sounds as lovely as her book, and this post is a shining star in your already excellent line up of blogged articles.

The focus on scene, action, dialogue is extremely helpful for a writer. I love to read books that are strong in these areas. Minimal descriptions. Strong verbs and nouns. I want to read her debut novel. (I have read Out of the Dust. It's wonderful.) It sounds like a good one. Thanks, Rosi, for interviewing her.<br /><a href="http://annbest-jen.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow"><i>Ann Best, Memoir Author</i></a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4141806273987183665.post-74069429734499063112011-05-07T14:48:52.046-07:002011-05-07T14:48:52.046-07:00What an indepth interview!
