We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.
In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have taken the trouble to respond to the query.

Dear Colleagues,
Can somebody recommend some article or book on the language of written interviews (biographical or literary interviews in magazines, newspapers, etc.)? There seems to be a wealth of material on political interviews and on TV interviews, but I haven’t been able to find anything specific on the linguistic features of written interviews.
