The Giraffmang Interview
An Interview with a FanStory writer.39 total reviews
Comment from Spitfire
I'm a big fan of the giraffe. His answers to your questions sparkle with his wry sense of humor. His answers beg for more in depth writing on the situation, in particular: I also got an ordination as a minister. It drives my wife insane as I did it to win a bet and prove a point.

Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
You have asked some good questions and Giraffmang has given you a wealth of interesting answers. You've done a good job of helping us see Giraffmang as a person and as a writer wanting to help the rest of us be better writers.

I read this article as a learning experience. He not only told of his tragic youth, but instilled him to better accomplishments. I liked his honesty about stars and reviews. For you Terry, another enjoyable work.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Gareth is a brilliant writer, and a brilliant reviewer. I love it when he reads my work. You know what he's saying is true. Anyone who ignores them, or gets upset with them are silly. You can learn a lot from him. I have all his recent helpful works, saved and printed out. I enjoyed learning about his early years living within the 'troubles', I'd have been scared out of my wits. I was interested in his charitable work, too, and his meeting with Prince Charles, who is himself involved with a lot of charities. There is so much in this interview that shed light on the man. I loved the explanation of how he got his name. I enjoyed all this, you did a great job with this interview, well done!! :)) Sandra xx

Thank you very much for sharing Gareth with us. He like Lee is one of my very favorite authors and it was nice to get to know him better. He's helped me a lot as a writer.
probably made most famous by Frank Sinatra.Sort of sums it all up nicely. (space needed after the period after 'Sinatra')
Maybe the soldiers searching our school bags on the way to and from primary school (ages 4- 11) should have given it away! (space needed after the 4 or delete the space after the - )

Comment from John Ciarmello
He is quite a guy. I've learned quite a bit from G over the months. He always took his time with crucial editing, and I was honored to have him in my corner. These writers you've interviewed are valuable to the learning process, which in my eyes, is never-ending. The day you think you know everything about writing is when you should reassess your love for the craft of writing. Great interview, Terry.

Comment from Fleedleflump
This was a great read - deep and involving. As with Lee's interview, it's fun to see where things diverge and correlate. I'm particularly interested in writing methods and inspirations, so that was my favourite section. My thanks to you, Terry, for providing the platform.

Mike, Lee and Gareth make my question look really good, but they are the writers, and it will have a surprise or two as well. Thank you, Terry.
Comment from Carolyn Dooley
You did a great interview with this man. I enjoyed reading your work. Thank you for sharing your interesting questions. And the answers were great. The man seemed to have lived through the good and the bad in life, as we all do. Have a great day.
