Author Interviews: Insight Delight and Ice Cream Sandwiches
Every once in a while we stumble across interviews that provide open windows of opportunity to gain insight into the life of unknown, struggling, or even famous authors we may have come to admire. Author interviews may bring out their struggles, projects, life and lifestyle, or wisps of dreams which may not yet be written upon the sky.—You know, those writing secrets. Writing habits. Ambitions, methodology, mind set. Back stories. The classic line ' the rest of the story', the unknown may even apply. What's in store in an interview? A great interviewer brings it on thoughtfully, and smiles impishly. I ought to know, I was recently interviewed by Christy D Birmingham from Poetic Parfait. Do I sound like I've been interviewed? I'm feeling particularly lucky today."Hello hello! Here is a new author interview with Raymond Alexander Kukkee. Having him over for a chat was fun as we had lots to catch up on. It helps that I heard he likes sweet treats and so I put out some ice cream sandwiches for him at the kitchen table. We ate, we talked, we smiled. I hope you like the interview!..."
