Kudos to our member Casey AND to our wonderful editor Milner Place! (not tomention John for bringing it to our attention!

This link has been twittered. Tweet, tweet.

And the link and milner have been twittered twice more by me.

 ;)

fantastic!  let's all try to post a link to Milner's interview somewhere or tweet or whatever the heck that is and let's just put on a big effort to spread the word.  Milner deserves no less than our best efforts.

I'm a bit overwhelmed by all this support - all of a twitter, you might (or better might not) say. Facebook is as far as I've got - twittering could be a step too far for me.

Thanks, and thanks again to all, most especially, of course, to Casey for doing the interview.

The comments that have so far been added are great, from John and Lynn, and Todd Moore is also there (ain't that something?)

milner, I'm kinda surprised that you haven't or aren't in the midst of writing a novel.  Your personality lends itself to novel writing, to me.  I'm not sure why.  I think it's because you appear to be so patient, and wise, as well as always saying the right thing in the right way, correcting and enlightening without pain--so to speak.

I bet you have a novel in you somewhere.

By the way, forgot to mention I love 'Outlaw Poetry' website--I think I mentioned to you before that I found your poem about the 'black bird' there and it was so fun to have your writing appear out of nowhere, like that.

Outlaw Poetry reminds me much of 'beat' poetry, or even some of the better 'slam' or 'spoken word' poems today.  Yet I get the sense that particular website is very professional, regardless of anything else.
