I realize I’m rather late to the party, but I enjoyed this interview. Robin is a friend and colleague at Spalding University, and a writer I respect and admire a great deal, not only for his wonderful fiction but for his wisdom and intelligence and generosity as a teacher. He’s also very funny. Glad he could be interviewed by SFWP.

Terrific interview with a terrific author — not to mention a great editor and a good friend. Robin was the fiction editor for “bananafish: short fiction” and made that all-too-short-lived literary magazine an exceptional one.
We’ve been out of touch for a while but I hope to see him soon.

Robin taught a fiction class I took at University of Louisville back in the ’80s. I think he was still working on Mr. Dalloway. I had already made writing a profession but Robin showed me how to love the craft better than I ever had. What he says here is true to how he was way back then.

Great interview! I loved hearing who Robin’s fave musicians are. I *loved* reading about Billie Holiday in In The Meantime and the way he creates such intimacy with the characters with an expansive narrative and multiple points of view…love the writing advice too. Always great to hear inspiring words from Robin!
