I need to interview a couple of sources for a magazine piece. The editor prefers I do it over the phone. Ive never done this! Its going to be hard to do on phone with kids running around and no husband in town this week. Plus I have no recording equipment and dont want to misquote. Email lets them think about their answer and theres no misquoting.
Heres a great post about pros and cons of email interviews.
I asked the editor if I could do email interviews and she said its not her preference and its not the norm but she trusts me to make the call.
PARENTS ... how do you conduct telephone interviews for magazine articles?
Update: Im reading that g-recorder might be the way to go and I can try it for free. Im REALLY uncomfortable thinking about using Skype for my interviews while I have kids running around the house. Its a plus that I write for parenting and family magazines, but I should be professional.
Still ... I dont want to have to hire a sitter so I can do an interview! Im thinking a good kid movie and some sugar treats might do the trick. And threatening them with NO POOL TIME if they interrupt my interview?
