C.A. Webb has posted a very good interview with JFP columnist/blogger Ali Greggs. Go, girl: You deserve all the celebrity you get!
It begins:
Known for being outspoken, witty and brutally honest, Ali Greggs caught my attention the first time I visited her blog on the Jackson Free Press website and saw her holding a rubber duck in her mouth. Amusing? Definitely, but you can believe she doesn't keep her mouth closed for long, tackling issues that are important to her as well as those which she believes will improve life for those around her. Ali's interview touches on subjects I normally wouldn't address, however after reading it I'm sure you will wonder why I don't bring them up more often.

Thanks Donna, I appreciate your kind words. There is definitely no one like Ali Greggs, and I was glad she agreed to the Q&A. As the article mentions, an excerpt will appear in the Clarion Ledger next month as part of my "ONE ON ONE" article that runs every Thursday in the Weekend section. The June issue of CONVERSATIONS zine(www.cawebbconversations.com) will also run the entire interview.
