MY INTERVIEWS WITH 2009-2010 STANDOUTS
17 Feb

Just as I did for the 2007-2008 awards season and the 2008-2009 awards season, I am now sharing a list of/links to interviews that I conducted with awards hopefuls during the 2009-2010 awards season that is about to come to an end. Some feature just text; others text accompanied by audio and/or video (ranging in length from just a question or two to over an-hour-and-a-half of questions). Most were conducted within the past year; a few were conducted previous awards seasons. I hope you have enjoyed or will enjoy all of them.
