Amy once spent her days drafting marketing plans and wrangling business operations, but she harbored a deep, dark secret: she was a grown-up obsessed with children’s books. Finally embracing her inner protagonist, she started writing stories of her own. As her literary obsession grew, she swapped her spreadsheets and brand guides for storytimes as a youth services librarian. Now she joyfully eats, sleeps, and breathes children’s literature alongside her husband, two almost-not-little kids, and troublesome pup in the heart of the Midwest.
When she’s not writing, you can find Amy curled up with a good book, playing an elaborate board game with her family, or cheering on her beloved Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
Amy is represented by Jennie Kendrick at Red Fox Literary.
“The difference between the almost right word and the right word is really a large matter—it’s the difference between the lightning bug and the lightning.”
