Hello
Hi! :) I'm Amanda, a wife and mom of three living in the lovely (and often cold) state of Minnesota. I write speculative fiction—from pixie dust to star dust and everything in between. My stories are faith and family friendly. I'm yet to be published and currently working on two novels. You can be the early bird and get the sneak peeks below.
