For anyone interested in IM Interviewing
.JPE "owenwarland's picture")
To expedite this new series of IM Interviews (the first 2 of which are available for viewing now), I'm starting this thread for anyone interested in participating.
If you'd like to be interviewed, indicate below. If you'd like to interview someone else, do the same. The only suggestion we have is if you get interviewed, please interview someone else.
Hopefully this thread will be an easy place to list your interest, and to establish contact with others.
(For those looking for Laz' Wanna Be Interviewed thread, it's merged with this one now)
Hey Cassun, you've got me reviewing stories in the WW again. I never thought you'd be inspiration.
that makes two of us. i mean, thinking i'd never be inspiring.
Interesting concept. Sign me up to be interviewed, and to interview as well.
Also, where are the 2 interviews already done?

Me too. Interviewing and being interviewed. I want to see if I can get some tough questions to tackle.
Random Thought also expressed interest, so one of yous guys should AIM her. I'm sure she's up for it whenever.

Interviewed owen (thanks again) but due to time constraints I'll have to post it sometime tommorow night.
Anyone wanting to interview me, keep in mind I'm online late...night shifts suck.

life's pretty straight without vidalia :You_Rock_
goddamn vaguries. yes what?
[QUOTE=alex cassun]goddamn vaguries. yes what?[/QUOTE]
I think he meant that he agreed night shifts suck.
I was here. Then I wasn't. Then I was again.
oh. he does this on purpose, you know?
I scored an interview with the lovely Lupus, and I'll post it to the WW tomorrow after editing it.
you're a teacher. you should be asshamed of yourself, ending a sentence on a preposition.
[QUOTE=alex cassun]oh. he does this on purpose, you know?[/QUOTE]
No, I didn't. But come to think of it I have seen it before.

Ask him about the whatever it's called thread where everyone is mad at him...
But I guess that's a gibbon...
I was here. Then I wasn't. Then I was again.
i thought there was a banninglaw above single word vague responses.
[QUOTE=alex cassun]i thought there was a banninglaw above single word vague responses.[/QUOTE]
Yes I saw that too. But that seems a bit draconian to me.
I was here. Then I wasn't. Then I was again.
but it should be as strickly enforced as all the other crap laws we've got.
I would like to interview and be interviewed.
[QUOTE=alex cassun]you're a teacher. you should be asshamed of yourself, ending a sentence on a preposition.[/QUOTE]
Since when is "it" a preposition, and not a pronoun?
[QUOTE=RandomThought]I would like to interview and be interviewed.[/QUOTE]
i think someone mentioned they were going to hunt you down. atomos, i believe.
[QUOTE=RandomThought]I would like to interview and be interviewed.[/QUOTE]
Atomos is interviewing you tomorrow, no?
[QUOTE=owenwarland]Since when is "it" a preposition, and not a pronoun?[/QUOTE]
oh fuck me sideways...um, well, i guess you passed the test. good teacher.
[QUOTE=alex cassun]i think someone mentioned they were going to hunt you down. atomos, i believe.[/QUOTE]
Yes.
Anyone else want to?
[QUOTE=alex cassun]but it should be as strickly enforced as all the other crap laws we've got.[/QUOTE]
We wouldn't want to be inconsistent. God forbid that. Like being pro-life but anti gun control. Or pro-FCC but claim we're a republic... that's be unheard of.

[QUOTE=RandomThought]Yes.

how many can you handle at once?
[QUOTE=Parkaboy]We wouldn't want to be inconsistent. God forbid that. Like being pro-life but anti gun control. Or pro-FCC but claim we're a republic... that's be unheard of.[/QUOTE]
hey, i'm pro-life and anti-gun control (both to certain extends, however)
[QUOTE=alex cassun]how many can you handle at once?[/QUOTE]
Well...I have to watch Family Guy soon.
But yeah, I could do it now with you. Heh.
nah, i wouldn't interrupt family guy. and i wasn't planning on interviewing you anyhow. i think it'd be better if people who were more strangers did the interviews.
[QUOTE=alex cassun]nah, i wouldn't interrupt family guy. and i wasn't planning on interviewing you anyhow. i think it'd be better if people who were more strangers did the interviews.[/QUOTE]
How are we not practically strangers?
Plus, I talk to atomos all of the time.

Well nobody's stranger than the 2 of you. Oh God, did I actually make that joke? But yeah, you should let Atomos interview you.

Okay, I'mma just come straight out with my stupidity:
I can't find the interviews!
I've looked and looked, but...I'm stupid...

They are in the Writer's Workshop listed as interview with... insert name of Cultist.
I was here. Then I wasn't. Then I was again.
i'm up for an interview whenever.
well kids, get cracking.
I'll sign on to try both, interviewer and interviewee, though I'd rather be interviewed first (Alex, Atomos?). Still, I can't pick-and-choose: if someone wants to be interviewed, let me know--I'll try it out. Can't hurt, eh? If anyone'll take me, I'm in.
Uhh...But where is the Writer's Workshop? The forum? The writing submissions? Something else entirely?
[QUOTE=Terminal Descent]Uhh...But where is the Writer's Workshop? The forum? The writing submissions? Something else entirely?[/QUOTE]
Go to fan, then click on Writer's Workshop. It's where stories are posted and reviewed. It's being used as a temp area for the interviews.
I was here. Then I wasn't. Then I was again.
Okay, I submitted my interview with Lupus, so if everything goes right, it should be up soon.
anyone who wants to be interviewed by me has to take some responibility and IM me

Oh, and Lupus said she was up for interviewing someone soon. Is Muse going to, Atomos?

The owenwarland interview has been submitted and will hopefully be up soon...
i was talking with owen, and he said he's been getting a bunch of not so positive feedback on the interviews in the WW, and a lot of it is probably stemming from people not understanding that it is just an interview. We were trying to think of a better place for the IM interviews, and i was thinking maybe the Hall of fame section, but probably not there as that already has it's own purpose. Perhaps this would be a good thing to start a new section for? I don't know. I just think it would be amazing if we could get a collection of interviews with the majority of cultists in one area, a Meet The Cultists type section...
After reading owen's interview of cassun, and i know only a little about cassun and i was blown away by the amount of respect that i felt toward cassun just from that one simple interview. I think that the boards could use a boost of respect from member to member, and this could be one springboard to it. It would also be a great way to create incentive for newer members to stick around, and a way for them to get their name out there. I wouldn't want to detract from the Writer's Workshop, but it really does seem that the interviews seem to be getting some not so positive feedback in the WW.
what do you guys think? How about you ViPu?
Also, if you have any suggestions regarding the interviews, please list them.
So far, we're looking into having a seperate section in a forum for cultists interviewing cultists, and if you've been interviewed maybe we could link the interview to your personal bio, things like that.
