how it affects the readers' relationship to the story. I am using GOF
and OOP as specific examples, and have devised a couple of questions
to ask readers.

Carol responds:
I'll try to respond to your survey, which sounds like fun. (Besides, I
may conduct one of my own some day!) The link to most of the
interviews is 

http://www.quick-quote-quill.org/

or you can access them from the Lexicon using the Quotes link. I don't
think the Book Day chat has been added yet, but Steve or someone can
probably provide you a link. (I have one, but the text is
backwards--last answer first--and I know there's a better link somewhere.)

Good luck with your dissertation. 

Carol
