Thank you so much for the interview with Cara! She helped me appreciate my writing and encouraged me to keep writing. I miss her so much:) You (Alison and Cara) are the best CRWR Professor and TA anyone could ever ask for. I wish I could go back to the CRWR 303 class...

Also, I can't agree more with how knowing more (about anything) always helps to become a better writer. In my case, learning the basics of anthropology helped me develop so many imaginative plots that I would never have been able to come up with otherwise!

Thanks for sharing this. Anthropology is human stories, yes! Knowledge and curiosity--lots of questions--is key. Maybe the stories we write are often a response to the curiosity...even the explaining :)
