13. Tone MM: I'm particularly curious about the morality of telling a story that a narrator doesn't think is particularly interesting … How much convincing should we do before we throw in the towel and come back when the narrator can see the importance of what they have to say? JL: I don't think we should just give up … We need to make every effort to make sure the narrators' know their stories matter and that there is a reason why are collecting them. SD: Though getting the full story is a great end goal, shouldn't your interviewee feel like they also have some measure of control over the interview, and that they won't be strong armed into sharing something? It seems to me that this is probably one of the best ways to get your subject to not only open up more willingly, but also to establish a strong rapport with them. Debating Musing Questioning
