Sigil Games Online has posted an interview with Senior Programmer Amanda Poe regarding their upcoming game Vanguard: Saga of Heroes. 

What's it like to be a female game programmer in a predominately male profession? It's very rare that I notice it, to be honest. I think that I occasionally need to work a little harder up front, because most programmers just aren't used to working with women, but I have never felt that anyone consciously treated me differently than a male co-worker. Of course, I grew up a tomboy, so I've spent most of my life doing male dominated activities.
