I did miss this interview. I was asking myself the questions you posed to her and wow, I am boring. I couldn't come up with any real interesting answers. Lol. But I did learn a lot about her. This was quite interesting. Thank you for reposting it. Gretchen

A fascinating interview with some great topics covered and an interesting insight into Helen's world. I found particularly useful her experience of researching (not disappearing down too many rabbit holes) and reviewing. Thanks for sharing, Terry. Debbie

Thank you, Terry, for sharing this and allowing me to get to know Helen better. Rather new to Fanstory, I enjoyed learning first about the origins of her name, but more importantly about who she is as a writer. I am getting to know her as a reviewer, enjoying and learning from her feedback which is always kind and constructive.

Helen is definitely a well-rounded reader, reviewer, and writer. How intriguing to find she favored Dostoevsky. But the Bible is a big-time influence/source as well. This sounded like a real interview. Very believable.

I thought this was a terrific insight into the creative mind and processes of one of the strongest writers on the site. She has been one of my favorite writers here for a while. I love her style, that surrealist bent that is such a part of the Russian tradition. Interesting to find that she read Dostoevsky, and Mandelstam. Dostoevsky is one of my favorites; The Brothers Karamazov is one of my favorite all time novels. The site wouldn't be the same without her style and personality. But I also liked the professionalism with which you conducted this. This sounded very much like a professional news paper interview. Very well constructed, excellent questions asked to reveal the person underneath all those posts. estory
