1. Oh this is a wonderful interview. Thank you, both of you, for taking the time. Barry, this was fascinating and encouraging; I’ll send it to my daughters, who both avidly draw graphic novels. I liked what you said about Maus being done with ballpoint pen on copy paper!

    I also loved this quote:
    There’s a story I heard about a gospel singer who was asked if he believed the religious sentiments he was singing. The singer responded, ā€œI believe while I’m singing.ā€

    Reminds me of a verse from “Walking in Memphis,” by Marc Cohn:

    Now Muriel plays piano
    Every Friday at the Hollywood
    And they brought me down to see her
    And they asked me if I would —
    Do a little number
    And I sang with all my might
    And she said —
    “Tell me are you a Christian child?”
    And I said “Ma’am I am tonight”

    The sample page is wonderful–I’m looking forward to one day reading this.

    So, again, thanks, both of you!

    • I love your take-aways from the interview. Isn’t it interesting, how certain words call out to us as individuals? How certain images capture our attention?

      I, too, was drawn to that quotation. Equally so, those lyrics speak to me. Thank you for sharing them here.

    • My pleasure! It’s such a fun book, and Barry is really nice. Uber-talented, too, but that probably goes without saying.

      Thanks for sitting in on the conversation! I hope you’ll come back to tell me/us what you think of HEREVILLE.

  2. ooooo! As someone who loves graphic novels and argumentation, I have to get this! And for some reason, I hadn’t heard of it yet. Thanks for the fascinating interview!

    • Sounds like a match made in heaven! And just think: there’s so much more to it than that. Hogs, witches, knitting needles and trolls…plus an intrepid main character!

  3. You know… as someone who was a born and raised Orthodox Christian, I’ll be picking this book up once I come upon it on my next Barnes and Noble visit! šŸ™‚

    • I’ll bet you really enjoy it. (Do let me know!)

      HEREVILLE is wonderful…well-suited for people of all age groups, irrespective of religious upbringing and/or literary preferences.

  4. Barry Interviewed at “The Author’s Tent”

    User referenced to your post from Barry Interviewed at “The Author’s Tent” saying: […] The Author’s Tent, a blog specializing in author interviews, was kind enough to interview me […]

  5. This looks great! Thanks for calling our attention to author and book. It’s interesting you’d never read a graphic novel before. A year or two ago I taught Persepolis to some honor students, and many were kind of horrified: they don’t read comic books! But they found they had to pay a different kind of attention, and really learned ways pictures tell complicated stories. It was wonderful learning for all of us, and — though like you, I’m kind of word-driven –I’m happy to see how the form is being used and developed.
