Okay, so, sadly, I could think of no clever quote for the title of this post. But post I must, and so: the folks over at Incendiary Literature, one of the most helpful websites for writers out there, I think, were nice enough to interview me — and asked some amazing questions. Check out the interview here!

You are indeed the queen of post-titling, but we all have off-days.
Great interview! It never gets old, I’m always interested in how other writers write, what their tools are…

I agree. I love reading about writers and creative folks in general.
I had to laugh because I’ve written in black and white composition books since high school! They have to be the black and white ones! My pens change, though. Currently it’s a Pilot Precise V5 extra fine.
Sorry to hear about the car and Sewanee. Cool interview!

I love “Housekeeping.” And Anne Carson. Good luck with your “found” time, though not what you’d planned. May you have success with revision and perhaps some refreshment. And stay away from those walls!

Ahhhh, Emma, you’re my hero and you give me hope that some kind of writing career/future can be made with a MFA. I am so glad you blog about your path through life with poetry!

Marie! — Yes. Sometimes even Google fails me.
Clurg! — The black and white composition books are the best, aren’t they? Though a dear friend of mine sent me a Moleskine for Sewanee (cue the pitiful weeping), and I have to admit that it is NICE.
Pamela! — I think I’m banned from all walled areas in Auburn now. Hopefully I’ll have better luck at Georgetown!
Mayumi! — Yay! It’s great to hear from you! And you’re a superstar — you’re on your way to a stunning career! Let’s hear it for the Virgin Vault!
