Doing an Interview…

A couple of months ago I did an interview with Canvas Rebel
https://canvasrebel.com/meet-louie-foxx/

They interview you with prompts that you choose from a list. It was a strange way to be interviewed and I’m not sure if I’m super happy with how it turned out. It’s not bad, but I don’t think it’s great.

Let me know what you think!
