Yes/No - Blake Butler
For the first installment of the Yes/No Interview Series we spoke with Blake Butler, author of There Is No Year, Scorch Atlas, and Ever.
Just a reminder:
If you're not the familiar with the concept of the Yes/No series, it is pretty self-explanatory. An author, editor, or any individual that we find worth interviewing will be asked 15-20 Yes-No questions. The catch is that they can only respond with Yes or No, though they are allowed to elaborate on one and only one question. We encourage all you people out there to submit questions! See our original blog post for more details.
