UPDATE: Apparently KABB 29′s interviews aren’t kept on their site forever. The link I had posted no longer works. But I swear I was actually on TV once.
Hi Chris, I’ve enjoyed what I’ve read on your site. You have a fresh and straight-forward narrative style and interesting stories. I appreciated your views on military service in the Austin American-Statesman, and found them helpful in adding another viewpoint to an essay I was working on about contemporary American war stories. Part one of the piece went up recently; part two picks up again with a portion of your argument (and likely comes out in June).

Good luck with your writing.

Kara,
Just read it and commented. Thank you for that article. It was not just well-written and informative, but it was also balanced. It showed we don’t all feel the same about our experience, and aren’t a monolithic block of people who write the exact same stories about the exact same circumstances.
Please let me know if I can ever help you with anything.
Chris
Thanks, Chris. I appreciate your comments on the article site and your remarks here. I look forward to reading more of your work.
Best,
Kara
