You gotta hand it to a guy who, in his search for fame in blogland, realizes that he might not be alone. A guy who looks up from his computer and thinks, hey, there are probably loads of other people in the exact same state and they’re just as worthy.
Props to Citizen of the Month Neil for creating the Great Interview Experiment. Meet your online neighbor (who could be anywhere) and introduce them to your readers, that’s the gist. I liked the idea a lot – I’ve met some swell humans through the web (Hello, expats and former expats!) so I wanted in. Plus, Neil’s no amateur when it comes to the Web – how’s that Technorati ranking now? – and I can see how this project would be a great way to bring new readers to NEV.
I was interviewed by Ascender, a visual artist who blogs here, and I’ve interviewed McKay. It’s tough to interview a total stranger so first, I cruised her blog to see if I could find out who she was. I had a little brain seizure over her politics, but I told myself, hey, you’re just meeting your neighbors, you don’t have to have a debate. Say hello, already, and stop being such a bore.
Okay then. Here’s McKay. She’s a divorced mom, directs live theater, is politically conservative, is candid about her life, and likes lower case. My e-talk with McKay is below the jump.
