Christopher Lincoln is the author of the new middle grade series Billy Bones, about a skeleton living in a closet. I have not read the books yet, but they look delightful and thoughtfully designed (which is probably due to the fact that Christopher is an art director. Perhaps. I'm just guessing.). I am facebook pals with Billy Bones, but the questionnaire below was filled out by Christopher, so I was a little confused as to who I should say is the special guest. Visit Chris and Billy on the web at chrislincoln.org/ (and now I'm even more flummoxed-- is Chris a human or an organization? The mysteries continue!)The following questions are based on James Lipton's questions from Inside the Actors Studio, which, in turn, are based on the Proust Questionnaire. One of the questions is about swearing, so please excuse our French.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present-- Billy Bones (or Chris Lincoln-- I'm not sure! I know I could have just emailed him to clear all this up, but I think it's more fun and mysterious not to know)!
Filled out by Christopher Lincoln (the man who types up my stories).
