I know there was all kinds of good stuff in this interview -- the reverso info alone is quite valuable, though I still can't do it -- but I'm in hysterics about the dancing. You and Laura -- of course. Rita. Oh, Lord, Rita would be awesome. And yeah, Gaiman in tight pants and Walter Dean Myers!!!

I want to come and boogie on the sidelines just to watch this.

Gaiman in tight pants is quite the mental image. I should probably thank Marilyn again, just for that!

Great interview, too.

It's impossible to do a bad interview with someone as witty as Marilyn! Thanks, Jules!

Hi, Kelly. Great interview with a great lady! Mirror, Mirror was one of my favorite poetry books this year. Marilyn makes it look so effortless -- what a gift.

She does indeed make it look effortless - and I've discovered the form to be beastly hard to write!

Fab, fab interview! SO much to love about it. Learned a lot, laughed a lot, and just plain marveled at Marilyn's diverse talents. Laura as the dark horse game for anything (*eyebrow raise*). Neil Gaiman in tight pants. Lord, help me.

I'm so glad you enjoyed it - Marilyn is indeed a wonderful person to interview, and I'm extra glad that DWT(L)S question occurred to me!

Thank you both for the wonderful interview. Of all the books I showed my children's lit students in spring, Mirror, Mirror was probably snatched up the most and hardest to get back. No wonder: it has just about everything.
