Qatar has present day slavery which is unfortunate, like Yemen

What a lovely man. I read his book "What it is like to goo to war". Heart wrenching and enlightening.

Great talk 💯

❤

He’s the best!

This was great - the breadth of knowledge of these two men is quite astounding. Worth your time even if you think you know The Waste Land and its contexts.

Enjoyable video & conversation. Thanks!

Dominic A Pacyga is a Chicago treasure. Love him! So infrmative.

Thank you for sharing this. What a fascinating time in our history! Heather Hendershot is displaying some real expert-level knowledge here.

Loving this book ❤

This definitely looks like a museum that I would go to!

16:24 I believe those are more commonly known as Hemostats. Retired Firefighter and Paramedic here. And Writer. In 2004, there was a writing competition called the NCWA (New Century Writer's Awards) It was kicked off in 2003, winners were announced in 2004 a year later. This contest was judged by Francis Ford Coppola, and Ray Bradbury. I entered two stories, but one got through and went pretty far, and though I didn't win, I did however, with that Story titles "Outer Darkness" wherein the future a group of human astronauts encounter an Alien derelict spacecraft that is hunted by the ghosts of its pilots. The story was 21 pages long out of the max 35 pages you had to work with. I didn't win, BUT I did make it to number 2 in the Top 10 Nominated by Ray Bradbury, these were 10 stories he liked and of the 10 his winner was picked, and Mr. Coppola had his top 10 nominees and his number one pick, and there was a third Judge, a Producer from Universal Pictures and a Top 10 with 1 winner which together made the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners. There were hundreds of thousands of entries it took a whole year to announce the winners. I was disappointed of course I lost to a story title "Milk" but that's the way the cookie crumbles as they say....but here is why I am telling this here.... I received a certified letter from Ray Bradbury that was typed, and in the letter, one page rectangle sheet, very nice paper soft with fine wrinkles, an off white or vanilla ice cream color, in this letter he wrote me to tell me how much he enjoyed my story, and he encouraged me to continue to write and think outside the box, and at the end he typed, Written on my '47 Royal KMM And then he made a space where he was able to sign and type his name. So when you showed his Royal KMM I got chills as I instantly remembered that letter and thought my God, a letter he wrote to me went through that machine! Goosebumps, actual goosebumps! Thank you so much for showing this event and although I was nowhere near it, I'm sorry I missed this. But I'm glad I finally got to see The Actual Royal KMM that letter I got was probably the very same one. I too use and collect Typewriters and write all my first drafts on a Typewriter then hand copy it into a computer, this was it's very familiar to me and it had an extra edit. In my current collection I have: 1990 brother EP-43 1983 brother EP-20 1972 SCM Electra 110 1968 Royal Aristocrat Special 1964 SCM Galaxie Deluxe 1959 Hermes 3000 1955 Golden Shield made by SCM They are all in perfect working order and I use them all when working, well except maybe the Aristocrat as it's a bet heavy of the hands even with the tension up on light, it's not meant for Book manuscripts. More like 1-3 page letters. But the best machine the real work horses are the SCM Galaxie Deluxe and 110 Electra, and the Hermes 3000....that Hermes is a Gen 1 curve body, and it's so so,,so nice to write one, absolutely a dream Typewriter that you can just go and go and go, just write and hands don't hurt, you absolutely can just get lost as the dream opens up and the Hermes 3000 vanishes. Thanks for reading ❤

The Pile lyrics sold it for me

Loved his books except for when he would slip in some propaganda.

I've very recently discovered Billy's work and LOVE it! He takes the world in so intimately and humorously. I want to write like him when I grow up😁.

It would have been nice to listen to this word for word and only word for word

A smart VN man. So many VN people can’t speak their mind the way Viet did. You’re one of the heroes.

I love them!!! The Ada was the first character of theirs I encountered who deeply impacted me. Emezi is an amazing author!

RIP Gary, your books motivated me to become an author.

yzzy? ikaw to???

She is incredible and so gorgeous

This is an amazing interview. With the best questions I've heard an author get asked in some time. Very well done.

Blood Diamond is one of my favorite movies.

The American Writers Museum is together!⭐

thank you so much 🙏 this was very helpful and simple❤

I love Joe, if for no other reason than he hired Harlan Ellison to work on Babylon 5. Talk about putting your money where your mouth is. Becoming Superman is a fantastic book; you don't make art happen, you let art happen.

This guy has no idea what he is talking about he needs to read the book nature knows no color line by JA ROGERS he probably already has but someone has paid him to preach this crap

Hi, Allison! I wrote for The Daily Cardinal when you were editor-in-chief.

Love anything that Elie presents. Had a difficult time trying to listen. The interviewer has a soft voice n would forget he had a microphone.

👍🏽👍🏽

31:27 stunning excerpt ! So many Vietnamese American women’s stories

17:32 dog man ! Well that was a turn hahaha viet knew he needed to change the talk around . Amazing

Absolutely adore this guy. Ellie, you're a genius!

Nice to see this interview!

Loved listening to her. I never knew of her work because I don’t follow Young adult literature and a friend gave me her name. Unfortunately, her work is not being promoted actively-daily.

Stumbled across this & I am very interested so thank you for posting this

Rest in peace Gary Paulsen. I simply would not be the man I am today without you.

how many interviewers can keep up with this dude - Mystal is a beautiful mind! Bless him & his family!

Reading all the Mr. Tucket books now - haven’t since middle school. I’m 30 years old now and I’m just as entertained reading them as I was when I was a kid.

I am watching this and yes the family history is very wonderful and sad I have researched ours for over 25 years I am pleased that the story of our grandmother is being told I am happy that pattie came to Spear with me

I am yet to listen to your lecture, which I intend to, I love oriental history. An educated woman is worthless woman, but Tan (the man) Yunxian born into an elite family, haunted by death, separations, and loneliness is being raised by her grandparents to be of use. Instead, of following pop American/Europian culture it is instigated to follow their traditions, it may not be what the book is about but by the way Ms. Tan is posed it indicates just that.

Absolutely loved this conversation!

Great video. Congratulations.

This looks like the best museum of all time.

Many thanks for the presentation.

Fff
