I would love to sit down with Jennie as well. Molly and Diane - And those are the words that every author loves to hear! Kathy - It's easy to have a great interview when there is a lot to discuss! amy BTW M - That's the title I like best too. Janet - I haven't read Raising a Reader before. I'd be curious to at least look through it. Jacky - Why thank you! I must admit that it sometimes takes me forever to formulate my questions. I'm glad you think they are good. Comments like that keeps me going! Ali - I told my husband about that last scene first and he thought that was amazing (he's trying to write his own book).

I've been interviewed many times in the past and it always griped me: the way the interviewers--none of them--appeared to know how to ask pertinent questions. I always thought: If I were interviewing me I would ask an entirely different set of questions. I like the way you seem to instinctively know how to ask the right questions, Maw.

I think the latter sounds more like a fiction book and think of the wonderful cover images you could put with it! It also is a nice tie in if textiles plays a role in it, which it sounds like it will. Also, I feel a little foolish that the other day I wrote a comment about Raising a Reader and how I enjoyed it and then the first part of this interview Jennie comments on how it wasn't very good. haha Well I liked it. :) While I do like The Encyclopedia of Grief as a title, I prefer A Threadbare Heart.

And I wish I could have coffee with Sandy, too! At the very least, please email me through my website, www.jennienash.com, if you do get a chance to read my book. I'd love to hear what you think!

I live in the middle of what used to be textile country, so I'm sure there are some textile historians around here, but unfortunately, I'm not one of them. You score the best author interviews.

I have not read either of her novels, but I will definitely added them to the TBR pile right now. I just loved this interview.
