      That’s very kind Irwin but unfortunately I’m so pressed for time that I wouldn’t be able to do it justice. I’ve emailed you a list of questions so take a look and see what you think. Kind regards, Morgen

    Morgen, I was very impressed with your Interview with Jon, the Autobiographical
    writer and his “nomadic history” that I sent him an e-mail message, indicating a number of things we have in common, such as writing adventure stories based on our personal experience, and, a mutual Scottish heritage, including a “connection” to a larger-than-life fictional character, the “Tai-Pan” of James Clavel’s novels, from whom I adopted the e-mail name, taipanwooten@aol.com.

    Blog interviews are so important to an author. Recently I had my email account (tdwriter) compromised by a hacker who tried to solicit money from my contacts. I could no longer get into my email nor could I alert my contacts about this hacker. I spent days trying to close this account. A lot of my social networking sites, now lost to me, were kept nice and neat in folders at this email address. What I’d like to say to anyone who trusts electronics is to print out everything you have online and keep this information in a special folder on your desk. Same with interviews. I had a devil of a time recontacting everyone. To be part of a blog is to become part of a community of friends. Don’t lose them like I did.

    Fantastic website Morgen. Just discovered it. It’s like being in front of an amazing buffet, with loads of delicious food choices and not knowing where to start.

    I guess, the author interview would be nice. Would you be able to to fit me in? If so, please send me the questions and the date 🙂

    Grazie!

    Hi Morgen,
    Thanks very much for my blog interview update – appreciated (Interview 26). What a great direct link you set up for my thriller SARCOPHAGUS on amazon. How/where do I find the long URL path to make a similar link to my crime novel TOO SMART TO DIE? Loved your short story Day the Dancing stopped – so poignant. BTW I’d like to guest blog please – what do I do?

    Hi Morgen, I’d love to have an interview posted on my 55th birthday, January 8, 2013. My paperback should be out by then, and it sure would be nice to have the exposure. I love what you’re doing here. You are brave and gutsy! Julie Greene

    Brilliant initiative Morgen! I just discovered your site (thanks to LI). I write short stories-in-verse, poetry and scripts for short films. I was one of the 238 authors recently covered by Hollywood & Vine magazine (www.hollywoodvinemag.com/issue6), following a blowup with a prominent NYC agency. I would love to be on your blog-show at some point as I have 2 books coming out this year. Since you are already booking 2013, do please send my an email with at least the number I can expect–you can follow up with the questions at your convenience (I will deal with them in under a week). Thank you so much, I will look to return the favour in the future.

    Hi Morgen, I just wanted to let you know that my paperback is about to be released. I wanted to wait until this time to answer the questions you sent, and also wanted to wait until after my trip to the UK to see my publisher, Jason Pegler of Chipmunkapublishing. The book should be in print shortly and I’ll get back to you. Everything should be all set by January. Thanks!

    Thanks, Morgen. No idea what happened unless I got caught up in selling our house and moving to the beach. I can attest that moving is the world’s biggest job.

      Hello Shriwal. It depends on the type of interviewees you plan to approach. I’d suggest reading interviews in the relevant industry / topic as well as researching your interviewee so you can tailor specific questions to their experience.
