Shutting up when interviewing someone
As a writer, it's always second nature to be inquisitive. Sometimes though, when interviewing people be it for ghostwriting or for research, there is a tendency to talk a bit more than warranted.

Connie from Today's Writer shares some interview tips which we may wish to put to use the next time we're required to shut up.
