4/14/2018

Amber was the special guest on the latest episode of Drinking During Business Hours podcast released yesterday. It is hosted by stand-up comedian Sarah J Halstead and in each episode she talks to a different creative person about their passions and what led them to do the work that they love.

Amber talks about growing up in Alabama, being bitten by the acting bug and some of her most memorable roles. Playing Ella McShane in Steven Soderbergh's classic film King of the Hill and her role as Tara Maclay on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. They discuss Amber's transition from acting to writing, being an author along with her work as a producer and director. This is a must listen for any Amber fan, she discusses her career and her experiences working as an actor. Amber is honest, engaging and very funny and even gives us a sneak peak of an upcoming project in this brilliant podcast. I only wish it had been longer.

Amber Is A Guest On The Switchblade Sisters Podcast

2/27/2018

Last Thursday Amber was the guest on the Switchblade Sisters podcast. In each episode film critic April Wolfe invites a female actor, writer, director or producer to discuss one of their favourite action or genre films. As Amber has all of these credits to her name she was an ideal guest. Amber's chosen film was 1980s horror classic Night Of The Comet. It had a big impact on her at an early age in part due to it having two young female protagonists Amber and April talk about the film’s key messages and themes and much more.

They also delve into filmmaking and how Amber made her first self financed film Chance which she wrote and directed as well as playing the title role opposite former Buffy the Vampire Slayer co star James Marsters. It's a wonderful film and to find out more click the hyperlink to visit our dedicated Chance page. Amber also discusses her role of Tara on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and her 5 book Calliope Reaper-Jones series of novels. I think Calliope is a fantastic character and I love the world Amber created. To find out more please visit our visit our dedicated Calliope Reaper-Jones section by clicking the hyperlink above. They also discuss the need for female characters to be both complex and at times flawed.

I thoroughly enjoyed this podcast, it's an absolute must listen for any Amber fan. Her enthusiasm for writing and creating shines through and she's funny, honest and insightful. I'll be honest I hadn't even heard of Night Of the Comet before listening to this podcast but I was so intrigued I ordered the film online so I could watch it myself.

Switchblade Sisters podcast is available for free by clicking the link below and hitting the play button, it’s also available via Apple podcasts.

A few days later the Fanatic Pop Culture Expo website did go live, sorry for the delay in bringing you this information I have had a busy couple of weeks. Their website does have all the information you need about the event, the venue and how to buy tickets. There is a range of different tickets available, you can also buy photo shoot opportunities with Amber and many of the other guests as well.

Fanatic Pop Culture Expo will feature guests from popular films and TV series including, Lord of the Rings, Sherlock and The Walking Dead. There was more exciting news for Buffy The Vampire Slayer fans as Amber will be joined by fellow Buffy cast member Nicholas Brendon.
