Thanks Sampo! Film Hound’s favorite mst3k episode? Mitchell! -E. Mitchell
That’s a terrible interview. Only the first and the last question are about the book proper. I understand the need for fluff questions “whats your favourite this or that”, but I would hardly consider this an interview that brings to light anything meaningful.
What was the process like getting the submissions?
Reaching out the the show’s creators, what was that like?
Reactions to the book?
Editing process?
Timelines it took to put together?
Advice on publishing?
Thoughts of a follow up book?
How well is the book doing?
Thoughts on individual essays?
Funny anctedotes about compiling the work?
etc..etc..etc…
I’ve really enjoyed the book. It definitely offers a few different perspectives than I had thought about. The interiew is fine, although some of nick’s (#2) questions would have been great to read the answers to. I believe everyone had a chance to offer suggestions for questions over on the Discussion Board.
Sorry #2, it’s an entertainment site, if you want info on submissions, timelines and editing you’ll have to wait for an interview at a publishing blog. Thoughts on individual essays? Mine was the best! :-) Glad you like the book #3.
@#4 – last time I checked the Seattle PI was a newspaper. At least when I lived near Seattle it was.
Regardless, it seemed to be a wasted opportunity to learn something meaningful about
1 – Rob
2 – Shelley
3 – the book
@Criswell – what essay is yours? At this years PCA/ACA conference Mcfarland had a few copies for sale at their booth – and they all sold out there. So the book is circulating (like the taaaaaapes)
