About

My name is Amy, and I write character-driven stories for young adults (both in age and in heart). I believe in and write about nice guys, young love, faith, family, and hope. A few other things you might want to know about me:

  • My husband and I started dating when we were 17.
  • We have a crabby cat named Callie Bear and a beautiful daughter who was born May 2019.
  • I would almost always rather be at the beach (but I live in the landlocked state of Tennessee).
  • My favorite TV shows are Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Fringe, and The Mandalorian.
  • I majored in TV production in college but have somehow ended up in the accounting field.
