Hi everyone. My name is Amanda, but I also go by Mandie. I have a BA in Creative Writing with an emphasis on fiction with a World Lit Minor and a Master's in Library Science with an emphasis on services to youth. I published my first picture book - Race Day Blues - under Mandie Schrader back in 2018. More recently, I co-wrote a script with my friends Dani Julian and Vincent van Hinte - Black Dog and Rebel Rose - and the novelization of that script was released last summer. I am in the process of rebranding my story editing business, Mandieland Literary, and am currently working on a few new writing projects as well as learning the ropes of being a screenreader. I love fiction and have a soft spot for Young Adult books, folk tales, and fairy tales. I am excited to connect with other like-minded creatives.

Congratulations on publishing your first picture book, Amanda Schrader! Love the titles of your works ("Race Day Blues," "Black Dog," and "Rebel Rose")!
I went to your profile and didn't see a bio. A bio is a great tool for building relationships/networking on here. You could add things to your bio like your experience, your work, and even your Introduce Yourself Weekend post.

Thanks for the feedback and congratulations. I'm a work in progress at the moment. I'll work on my bio and stuff next.
You're welcome, Amanda Schrader. "I'm a work in progress at the moment." So am I! :D
