Steve Mosby, author and generally wonderful human being, put up his replies to a questionnaire here. The English version comes from the weird fiction review but it was originally written in French as a weird (apparently this word is doing more work than I ever expected from its slothful appearance) version of a much older questionnaire made famous by Proust's piquant replies. The first 60 or so entries in this blog are my replies to those questions. Each reply took exactly one minute as per the rules.
Questionnaires like this were popular back in the day and if googling 'proust questionnaire' is anything to go by, still are today. In victorian times (maybe - I'm not concerned with accuracy here. For me history goes something like: cave men, roman interlude, king arthur, Black Adder 2, Queen Victoria, now) confession albums, in which guests were encouraged on visiting ones home to answer such questionnaires, were rather popular.
