About Amanda

Amanda's journey as a writer began in the early 90's with crayons and an ill-fated submission to PBS' Reading Rainbow. She has spent the past ten years moving across the Eastern Seaboard from New Jersey to Pennsylvania to Alabama and back. While her background was initially in Health Care and Mental Health, she has pivoted with each move into more content creation endeavors. Now, as an almost-librarian, she enjoys spreading her love of all things watched and written to any patron willing to listen. She hopes to one day see a work of her own on the shelves.

Unique traits: Part time librarian.
