Interview with Author Jennifer Alvarez

I’m very excited about today’s post.

Many thanks to Steven Moore for letting me repost this – and for his insights and thoughts on writing (and writer’s block, and head colds/flu, and the “appropriate” length of blog posts, and… teehee) generally! The original post can […]
