Meant to mention it, but my picture cards arrived awhile ago in great shape. They are a fantastic set! I’m going to frame them, too.

Great interview, and great news that another Pike book is in the works!

Don’t know how heroic it was, but while I was in graduate school a real jerk professor was riding someone unfairly, really tearing them down in front of the whole class, and I stood up and called him out on it. He threatened to throw me out of his class (fail me) but I didn’t back down; told him we could go talk to the Dean about it – and his behavior – if he wanted to. Didn’t happen. AND I ended up getting the 2nd best grade in the class… blind grading, of course! 😉

I agree, Soph (and wrote about that here). Notice I didn't fess up to anything I did? But I really wanted to hear about the awesome things people have done because it seems we hear more about folks doing mean things than good. Double standard on my part? Yes. But I'm so glad people shared because they inspired me. And they did it only because I asked, not because they were boastful. And you definitely get 2 points!

Hey sugar….was thinking about the heroic thing i did for a friend. and here’s the problem – i think it might diminish it if i fessed up. part of the heroism of it was that it’s sealed and buried, never to be discussed. for someone like me, who has to discuss every single thing to conjure it into being, that’s HUGE….my staying moot on the subject is the 2nd act of heroism. (and i think i get two, by the rules! 🙂

great interview. for reasons large and small.

Heroic? Me? Not so much.

I really can’t think of anything “heroic”. In my senior year in high school one of my good friend’s boyfriend broke up with her a couple of days before prom and she asked if I would take her and I did. Is that heroic?

I was always a good listener. People would tell me stuff (sometimes TMI) and I’d listen and point out their options without telling them what to do. (Well, sometimes I would tell them what to do, but would they listen? No.)

But I do like wearing brightly colored spandex tights with a mask and a cape if that counts.

Had to come back and read the interview again! Brightens my day. SO looking forward to The First Rule! I love seeing the world through Pike’s eyes and learning more about him.
