Cameron Betts interviewed a number of us, including myself, at NELCO (the New England Larp Conference) last year, which he's posting on LARP Out of Character, edited around the questions he asked -- "How do you define LARP?", "Is LARP a game or an art?", and "What makes a good character?" The first two are up:

Festival is always a fun time. I'm excited to see what's going to run! I might actually have the time and energy to play something. :-)
