This is likely the longest interview I have read on this site. I think I know more about Debbie now than I do about Neil Diamond, Barbara Streisand, or Bob Dylan. I think you asked some unexpected questions to get more responses that were formed as they were being realized.

Rachelle, I am delighted to see you take up the mantle of the interview. May you become the Barbara Walters of FanStory. I too, have enjoyed Debbie's poems and been amazed at the amount of work and research she does for some of the subjects. You two make a good pairing for this interview. Well done. Terry.

    Hold your horses there, Sweet Terry! This is not my new mantle; I'm just picking and choosing from time to time.

    Thanks for the kind words and encouragement. Very much appreciated. xo

Wish I had a seventh star for this, Rachelle. You have a talent for getting to the heart of an interview and the interviewee. You bring them alive rather than having them remain a picture, or just an imagined image, behind a name--and they become someone we wish we could really meet in this physical world. I would be thrilled to read a whole book of your superb interviews. Hugs, Lily

Rachelle, you'll have to share half of the sixth star with Debbie. While your interview was most excellent, and excellently presented, it would fall flat without such a deserving subject. I had no idea. Since I review so few poems, I was a bit in the dark as to Debbie's success. I do recall enjoying those of hers I've read, and was often thrilled by her reviews of the few poems I've offered. I may now go back and frame them!
Thank you for interviewing her.

    I agree! Isn't she just the BEST reviewer, Wayne?! So GRACIOUS and encouraging always.

    Thanks for this nice review, yourself, and for appreciating her talents with the same enthusiasm I do.

    Well, read Wayne Fowler's review of this, and you'll see that the real magic lies in my subject! You are so gracious and charming that there was no way this would be a dud. I honestly had so much fun working on this together. xoxox
