It went quite well - the host is interested in bringing her back for another interview with some other guests. It tended toward the more serious aspects, rather than humorous, and she managed to 'zing' Amy with a question or two regarding the differences in compensation packages between men and women (men's had traditionally been more likely to include stock options; women's less so until recently).

Amy sounded so smooth and professional that I didn't recognize her at first!

She's also conducting a writing workshop at Barnes and Noble in Fremont tonight, for a writer's group that meets there about once a month. [Read entire topic]

It's a bay area station; their studio is down near the San Jose airport. I had some trouble picking them up last night when I was in Pleasanton, but they came in fine on the bay side of the hills. [Read entire topic]
