Veery Past And Present
Veery interviews are only with the best of their field. Veery began in the late Eighties and continued in print into the Nineties. The interviews on this web site are selections of those in print first and those first published on this web site. Some of the interviews are over 10,000 words, taking months. Veery is entitled Veery because of the veery bird, not flashy in appearance and noted for its sweet song; Veery journal was and is not flashy in its appearance, and its sweet song is its uniqueness and intellectual depth.
