Interview Free Since 12:03

June 21, 2007 by Betsy Bird   7 comments

Nope.  Nothing here today.  Y’all will have to go elsewhere for your interviewer/interviewee/interviewi fixes.  If I might make a suggestion?  Try the following:

Eddie Campbell at Chasing Ray
Sara Zarr at Writing and Ruminating
Brent Hartinger at Interactive Reader
Justine Larbalestier at Big A, little a
Cecil Castellucci at Shaken & Stirred
Ysabeau Wilce at Bildungsroman
Jordan Sonnenblick at Jen Robinson’s Book Page
Chris Crutcher at Finding Wonderland
Kazu Kibuishi at lectitans
Mitali Perkins at Seven Impossible Things Before Breakfast
Laura Ruby at The YA YA YAs

By the way, how’s this larger font?  Do you prefer it?  Should I switch over?

    The larger font is better (but something with a little more space between the lines would be even easier to read!)

    I dunno. The big font makes it look like I’m standing on a street corner at 6 a.m. in a quiet neighborhood yelling at the top of my voice about topics that can’t possibly interest anyone but myself. I may *gasp shudder* have to consider a different font. Scary. I’m a Times New Roman woman through and through.

    Nope–I hate it when someone shouts at me online. It makes me think that you are living in Nigeria and trying con me, or have been drinking again.

    And I, too, am a Times Roman woman. (I used to New York b ut that font seems to have disappeared on my computers.)

    I like the smaller font–if I need to I can always kick up the point size with my browser.
    Bon voyage!

    Bring back the smaller text size and the serif, please.

    If you decide to go with larger text, please increase the space between lines.

    larger yes, bold, not so much.

    I like the smaller text better; it looks less… clunky. Enjoy DC.
