Hi Debi
This is a well-written interview. It shows Terry's history and humor. He starts and ends the interview with humor. I like how he lets us know more about you along the way. Hope he had a wonderful birthday.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have a wonderful rest of the week.
Joan

I just have access to my phone tonight and not my computer. My eyes are struggling, but I noticed that your poem was excellent as all of your poems are. I wish I had a better review but I am getting ready to drive about 12 hours tomorrow and I'm ready to go to bed. Another great job as always.

I thoroughly enjoyed your interview as you brought a little bit of Texas culture from across the ocean into my lap in England here Debi. I enjoyed Terry's unique answers to your searching questions and we learned a little bit more about him. I also listened to his video and Terry is lively and articulate (I love his accent) and your prediction for him to live until he is 100 years old sounds about right to me. An entertaining post Debi, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

This was such a delightful and enjoyable read as always. The story is not only entertaining, but also touching and deeply heartfelt. It beautifully captured Terry's humor, warmth, and wisdom in such a natural conversational way.
The Tory is interesting, intriguing, and full of meaningful moments, from the fun banter to emotional reflections on life, writing, and friendships. I also appreciated the part about Sarah Robinson. It was genuine and also tender. Thank you for such an engaging, informative, and memorable piece of writing.

It is very rare in this day and age to meet someone who possesses a generous spirit and giving heart and asks nothing in return. Terry Broxson is such an individual.
This collaborative interview highlights the humor, kindness, and well-lived life of an individual who I am proud to call my friend.
I treasure our friendship, and I wish Terry a wonderful 79th birthday. In fact, I'll even imbibe an amaretto sour or two on Friday night in his honor as I wave to him from northern Michigan!

Cheers, Terry!

Apologies for not having a six. Love your writing an' your singin' an' pickin'
ain't too bad either. I really admire people who refuse to let age limit what they love doin'. An' you sir, definitely belong in that inspirational brigade.

I'm not sure who got the best of this interview, but it was probably me. I love the sly humor and the way you two thrust and parry without malice, but with intent. You two clearly have a personal understanding.
I also like that you didn't clog the interview with 'writing' crap. I find the two 'characters' much more interesting than the requisite literary chit-chat.

So, how did Glen the tab for Pappy VanWinkle?

Peace, Lee

    Lee, I am honored by your kind words and your generous six stars.
    I know Terry will feel the same. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
    It is all so deeply appreciated.
    Btw, Glen has set up a time payment plan to pay for that lunch : )
    Love, Debi

Hi Debbie this was a great story and I laughed reading this:"That sweet tea is bourbon, and your water glass is George Clooney's Casamigos Tequila-Lookie here, you tall Texan; be on notice. This isn't going to be a pushover interview!

(I pretend to sound serious and try hard not to laugh)

What the hell! I thought you had eye trouble.

Yes, but there is nothing wrong with my sniffer. Thank you for ordering the appetizers and margaritas. Although, I'm not sure about drinking two. I hope you won't mind ordering an Uber as well. " thank you for sharing and have an amazing day.

I have always wondered if interviewing Terry would be mind-blowing. He seems great at changing to so many different subjects, turning everything into jokes, and enjoying his Pappys. I also wish I had been in your place. Great job getting some of the best of Terry in an interview.

    Awe, Carol, you are so sweet and cute at the same time. Plus you crack me up. Thanks for such fun comments about the interview with Terry for his birthday. We also thank you for the generous six stars. You are so right, he is a lot of fun and next time we do this I will make sure you get a special invitation. This truly was one of my favorite things I have ever done while writing here. Thanks again, my dear friend.
    Love, Debi
