Anyone Interested in Being Interviewed

[DatOneTallGuy]

So I'm doing an English paper for college and I need to interview someone for it. My paper is about the Brandon Sanderson fan community so obviously I went here. I would prefer someone who has been on these forums for a while but honestly it doesn't matter too much. If you are at all interested you can email me at harrisonpeglar@gmail. I'll only ask you a couple of questions and should only take at most 15 minutes. Thanks in advance and if you want to know more about the paper I'm writing and why I need an interview so you can know I'm legit I have no problem answering questions.

I think giving everyone more information about what you are doing would also help you find an interviewee.

Yeah you are probably right. So the paper I am currently writing is the second paper of the semester, the first one was about something we were proficient in or enjoyed doing. I chose reading as my topic and since Brandon Sanderson is my favorite authors and has played a pretty big part of my life for the past couple of years, he played a big part in that paper. The paper I am currently writing is about discourse communities (if you wanna research more about what that is you can look up "The Concept of Discourse Communities by John Swales) and for my community I chose to write about Brandon Sanderson's fan base. The questions I would be asking are going to be something like "what made you interested in joining the community?" or "do you view yourself as an expert within the community or a novice and why do you view yourself that way?" Also the interview will be over email so you won't have to worry about scheduling a time to actually talk. If you have any more questions that I may have missed answering feel free to ask!

If your deadline approaches, shoot me a PM and I'll take care of it. Don't want to steal the spotlight early on though

@DatOneTallGuy, I know EXACTLY what paper you are talking about, I did the same thing in my first college English class. I am willing to participate in this interview as well.

And welcome to the 17th Shard!

@DatOneTallGuy Hello and welcome to the Shard!

You can interview me as well, if you still need someone. I don't mind answering a few questions.

Hey everybody! Just wanted to thank you all for offering to be interviewed and showing an interest in helping me! I was able to get my paper turned in on time because of it and that is a HUGE relief off my shoulders! Also for introducing me to the Shard and how many great people are on it, if I wasn't so knee deep in school work I would definitely get lost among all of this. I hope to actually get involved with the Shard during winter break and explore all it's nooks and crannies. So again thank you for your answers to my calls for help, and also for showing me that a fan base that I thought might be interesting turned out to be really awesome! Till another time, tootles!

I don't particularly care to be interviewed, but I'll say "Welcome to the Shard!"

You came for an interview, but since you're here you may as well be lured in by all these beguiling topic threads.

See if you can get extra credit for actually joining the discourse community you're writing about.

I would have like to be interviewed, but either way, welcome to the shard!
