Wow. thank you, Malcom, for posting your insightful interview. I, for one,
am a college English major (Lit., not Creative Writing) who has just
embarked on a new literary endeavour. I have always been apprehensive about
beginning stories, because I have this annoying habit of never finishing
them. Mrs. Dillard did indeed have some very valuable comments that will no
doubt aid me in my latest try at fiction, however successfully (or
unsuccessfully) it turns out. Thanks again!

very valuable comments about writing as well as college. If anyone is in the
university system and would like to reprint her thoughts for your students,
please feel free, just keep my name attached. Enjoy.
