Whilst I do enjoy posting stories on frompage2screen.com about up and coming films, books, and other media related projects, I have a special fondness for the online interviews that I started a few years ago to spice up the website a little. They not only are wonderfully interesting to read and put together, but also enable me to ‘interact’ with some of my favourite creative souls, even over an internet connection. The online interviews are basically a set of pre- prepared questions that I send off to whoever is taking part and then I wait patiently for the answers to come back, so I can learn a little more about the person taking part. Often people will answer most of the questions, sometimes people will answer some of the questions, but rarely does someone answer all of the questions. This article is the first time that they have all been answered and thats not only wonderfully exciting for me to read through the answers, but its also a testament to how amazing Dani Thompson is. I first met Dani a few years ago at a film event. We managed to have a quick chat and catch up and over the years have swapped a bunch of tweets, and also sat down a couple of years ago for a face to face conversation as part of the ‘Spending Time With..’ video series. Dani Thompson, Actor, Writer, Producer, Presenter, Singer ( even a Vegan Lifestyle blogger at https://twitter.com/veganvamplife ) and much more. Dani is not only one of my favourite people, but also one of the inspirations that keep me working as hard as I can. So keep up the great work Dani and thanks for taking the time to answer the ‘Spending Time With…’ questions.
