I love this series, Terry. Here, your questions held Lyenochka up to the light and her answers were like that light dancing off prisms. We got some delightful insights into her methodology and I found, as many readers will, that we are really not much different from each other--save for the years we put into our craft.

You did a fabulous job with your questions, Terry. Each took the interview to a deeper level.

This is a very well-written interview using very specific and interesting questions to learn more about the author. You have brought out much about Lynochka's interests.

You did a great job, Terry, as interviewer. Your interviewee, Lyenchoka did a great job answering your questions straight from her heart. She's an asset to FS. Together, you and Helen produced an interesting interview with some valuable tips and great insight by Helen.
Respectfully, Jan

What a wonderful idea, doing these interviews. Thank you so much for sharing this one with Lyenochka. She is a gifted writer in so many different styles. She has certainly been a big help to me on here. I admire the time she spends in research on different subjects and then puts the fact into an interesting read for us.

This is a spectacular interview. You have certainly started at the top of the learning tree with Lyenochka. There is nothing better than to learn from these people. I've learned here that editing 101 is not falling in love with your words or phrases. You have to be willing to pen a line through your favorite line or word if it doesn't work for that piece. It can only make it better. I love this idea, Terry Broxson!

Great choice for a topic. Helen is one of my favorites and true to her writing ability, gave well-phrased answers to your interview questions. Best question is what they look for in other people's work. This answer will help others become better writers.

Hi Terry--

Terrific idea, this! Kudos on beginning with Helen, one of the most beloved writers on the site! I enjoyed your questions and her thoughtful responses.

Helen is a warm intelligent woman who not only gifts us with her writing but goes out of her way to offer birthday wishes to every member possible, offers intelligent and always encouraging reviews, begins book chapters on subjects that have us all joining in and smiling...

I am among the many who are delighted to call her friend. I can attest to the caring Private Messages she has offered me over this past year as I struggled with medical issues.

You've managed to elicit a smile--both for your writing and for her responses!

In many ways, FS becomes a family ~ supporting one another well beyond reviews and contests votes. This post has brought that into the sunlight, and we all ought to be as warmly inquisitive as you are.

Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to read your next installment!

Karenina

Helen is a fascinating and brilliant author, who researches so many topics to bring to and delight us readers. I enjoyed reading her answers, all were so good, and they were the answers I would expect from her. Well done, I love this idea. I also would like to have sets of sixes for each genre. :)) Sandra xx
