Excellent conversation on a range of issues. Demi is just as she comes across in her writing: serious demeanor but still fun and approachable. That she's versatile and multidimensional is clear. Thank you to both of you.

Ah, so nice to see you two ladies together in conversation. Demi says she follows her ideas whether they make sense to her or not. I love that. I really enjoyed hearing about Demi's working practices. She is a role model to all creatives :) I loved hearing about how she regularly stumbles on synergy's. AND you have a beautiful smile, Demi :) Demi - I was kind of worried that I had recommended SO many people already :) You made me feel better about that. You are an excellent hostess, Jacqueline! Demi, I loved hearing about you having to get to know what your "modes" are and where your energy is taking you. Jacqueline, you say "It's good to figure that shit out about yourself" HHAhhaa. IN DEED. I also love that you mark up books, Demi. I do that too. I can't really lend a book because who knows what I have written in there. You are really good at conveying that you are trying to show people that they have the right to be what they want to be. I love you guys :) Hahaha. You are both so sweet. It is so important that we bring love and human kindness and hopefulness to each other. I agree. I saw a few examples just this morning with some drama in my street and then at the grocery store. May we all be a support to each other. I am so grateful to you two that just writing that has me crying my face off, no leak about it. Full on had to remove my glasses...... Hahahaha. Of course, that's the third time this morning. Some days are just that way. Being a loving person does spread to others. Thank you!

This was such a treat!!! Thanks to both of you beautiful ladies. I am definitely inspired by this episode, and all the wisdom Demi shared on her own creative process, social media journey, and writing inspiration. This is a brilliant idea, and your presentation and interview style is wonderful too 💙💫

"We haven't had a voice to tell you!" - that understates the magnitude of the crime that has been dealt to us so elegantly.

I am a little more brash than our Demi. I say that millions of people would still be alive right now if we had not been de-platformed and censored. It was unforgivable and for me, still cast out in the social media cold, it still is unforgivable.

I agree with you. I'd rather not get JR deplatformed out the gate though. Sending my love!

It really is game theory at play, in figuring out the best most strategic way to proceed through the machine with a truth-speaking voice while dodging the matrix swords of binary code in order to prevent loss of said voice. I love, honour and appreciate both of your approaches. XOX @Frances Leader

Yes, game theory it certainly is, but it is also mind control imposed upon us as if we are criminals when we are, actually, the victims of a vast global crime against humanity.

Yes, that was why I said that you understated it with elegance. I could not have been so careful, had I been in your shoes, Demi! You are as brilliant in speech as you are in writing and that requires a speed of thought which I know I would struggle to achieve. Well done.

That's a beautiful acknowledgement, Frances. She's been jedi-trained. You're Obi Wan Kenobi and Demi is Luke Skywalker. hahahah...that might be the sangria talking. XOX

Great interview Mme Rendell, Demi et vous, you two had a great deal of chemistry as interviewer and interviewee(?).

Ceci etait merveilleuse.

Merci beaucoup!! 🙏

I’m so grateful you enjoyed it.

I plan to do many many more...!!

I am working on Charlotte and Coleman. It would be an honour to meet with them.

Expand full comment

D'accord, et oui ton entrevue était intéressant.

I would also recommend Morgoth from Morgoth's Reviews come to think of it, he's a little larger than Starfire Codes and is an interesting fellow.

And hey if ever you want to talk mythology and legends, I'll be up for it hahaha though I doubt I could contribute half so much as those I recommended. They are deeply fascinating intellectuals. Hopefully yt won't stifle your growth too much, as they so often do to so many.

Oh wonderful!! Thank you for suggesting Morgoth and also for offering to be a guest! I’m only 3 months in and still making my way around and getting to know the villagers, so to speak. I’ll check him out.

I am putting you down on the list! I’m sure you would be quite fascinating yourself. 😉

Re: YouTube. I hear you. I should probably consider another platform. I do love the idea of growing whatever I do into work I can do from anywhere, should I choose to leave Canada. Would you suggest Rumble? Odyssey?

Wow! Great job Jacqueline. You are a great interviewer. Nice flow and just the proper amount of spiral. I’ve seen Demi interviewed several times, you brought out her best. She was quite comfortable with you. And... your production skills are excellent! A+

Wow!! Thank you so much Todd for this wonderful feedback!! I'm thrilled to hear it.

It was wonderful for me to enjoy my first real conversation with Demi after having been connected merely through posts, memes, and emojis. :)

Excellent interview, thank you Jacqueline! I love how Demi keeps readers spirit bright during this chaotic time in history by accessing our ability to laugh. Laughter is the best medicine and that’s so true. I use it to relieve stage anxiety.

Especially I love how both you spectacular ladies encourage everyone’s light to shine bright. Although a romantic love song I’m reminded of the lyrics from Bobbie “Blue” Bland’s Turn On the Love Light: “Turn on your lights let it shine on me shine on your love light. Let it shine on me let shine, let it shine”
