  1. Hello, readers!

    I'm a big fan of yours, and I've been waiting for the chance to get to know one another better for quite some time! Over the next while, you'll see the Squills team pop up and have their own chats with you, but I'd like to have mine now!

    If you're new off the boat, my regular entries into Squills include Featured Member Interviews, Societal Interviews, and Hot Seat Interviews for spotlight featured works! While I happen to be adjusting into writing more for the Storybook Seas and Roleplayers, I would love to have your reflections on my entertainment value so far!

    So I have some questions, if ya don't mind!

    ♦ Have you appreciated having a comic style in Squills, or has it gotten in the way, you feel, of the major material?

    ♦ What do you want to see me do WITH Squills and FOR Squills?

    ♦ Do you look forward to new editions to see who put what together? If so, how've you liked my articles when they've cropped up?

    It's been a joy writing for you since early 2017, and I can't wait to continue on into the future! Let's have a chit-chat here, yeah? I'll respond to any and all comments. :)
  2. I really like having humorous articles. I appreciate being able to laugh at things XD.

    I want to see you do what you like with Squills, which basically for me seems to be the fabulous interviend informative articles you write. If anything, I’d just like to see random users being interviewed.

    And, yes, I look forward to your articles!

    You know I'm not going through this discussion again.
  4. @JustPerks, that's wonderful and flattering to hear! Comic writing is in my nature, so translating it to journalism is a bit cornerstone for me. I don't know if I could out a serious article if my life depended on it! (Maybe word of the week...)

    @LadyLizz, the drier the better. The snark is strong in you.

    One thing I do find weird about my interviews is that the jokes are written collaboratively with the interviewee, so it's almost like padding between skeleton-question-and-answer. I always encourage them to take a second sweep through and write off of me, and I write off of them as well. This week will be no exception!
  5. How do you come up with your interview questions?


It had a perfectly round door like a porthole, painted green, with a shiny yellow brass knob in the exact middle. The door opened on to a tube-shaped hall like a tunnel: a very comfortable tunnel without smoke, with panelled walls, and floors tiled and carpeted, provided with polished chairs, and lots and lots of pegs for hats and coats—the hobbit was fond of visitors. The tunnel wound on and on, going fairly but not quite straight into the side of the hill —The Hill, as all the people for many miles round called it—and many little round doors opened out of it, first on one side and then on another.
