Skydiver, I think this interview turned out great. David and I do a lot and, while we are able to reach a certain level of comfort with the person being interviewed, there's always a certain detachment between "the star" and "the journalist." You could relate to Amanda on a comfortable level that made it much more like two gals sitting down for tea.
I remember copy editing and posting your news story last month from this interview, where Amanda talked about appearing on Atlantis and her contractual commitments. It was very relieving to sit down and listen to the full audio interview itself, and to hear the tone of her voice in those comments -- not at all "resigned to her fate" because they had her name signed on the dotted line, but cautiously optimistic and not at all sounding like she feels she's being asked to do something she doesn't want to do. At least that's what I got from her tone.
