I loved the interview. I had no idea you were Navy. My favorite college was USN, 77-06.

Thanks, Will. I served a couple of years aboard the USS San Jose, AFS-7. Interesting times.

Interesting to hear that you haven’t a plan when you sit down to write and that “everything is poetry fuel”. You’ve got a lot of space in which to work, and it takes a lot of skill and experience to handle that much freedom.

Experience has taught me not to attempt to write about everything at once, but to instead “go small,” to concentrate on only a few elements. It took a long time to learn that lesson. 🙂
