What’s Up in the Neighborhood, May 29, 2021

Good Saturday to you, my beloved blog readers. You know the routine. On Saturday, I step aside from my blog and I showcase the work of my fellow bloggers, writers, podcasters and photographers. And I also take a moment, when possible, to interview these bloggers and have them share their stories.

And I’m pleased today to share an interview today with my good friend Amy Biancolli, of the “Figuring Shit Out” blog. In this interview, she talks about the inspiration for her blog, the people who inspired her writing along the way, and the moment when a young Star Trek: The Original Series fan actually moderated a movie Q&A with William Shatner.

And now that you’ve enjoyed that interview, let’s check out what wonderful things the blogroll has today.
