This is the seventh installment in a series of interviews with myself and various writers and members of the Mockingbird community.

Additional interviews in this series can be found here. […]

Champions She Shall Never Want

Did It Have to Be Jesus? ~ Nicole Cliffe
One of the more vitalizing talks from our conference in NYC came from Nicole Cliffe, who co-founded of one our favorite humor sites, The Toast (may it now rest in peace). Be ready to laugh and cry as you hear this story of how a sarcastic Harvard grad found God.
