About Me

My photo
Amy
From the time I was an oily preteen girl passing notes to Candace Coker in Social Studies, my favorite thing to do is write words that make people laugh. For variety, I also like to write words that make people cry. I practice this while freelance writing, raising a 13 year-old daughter, keeping up with my two college-aged stepchildren, and flirting/fighting with my famously patient husband, Tim. My life's dream is to finish a book and talk about it on "The Today Show."
