Amanda Marie ♥: My name is Amanda. I fell in love with writing when I was incredibly young, and have since been a devourer of books, a lover of stories, and a creator of poetry, short stories, and much more. I use this website to play with my characters and storyline for my upcoming book based on my characters Chase and Avery. If you read any of the posts on this blog, just know the writing is pretty bad and doesn't reflect my current abilities and how I will be writing these characters in the present. :) Pretty much every single post on this blog was written in one single take with minimal editing, just for fun and so I could experiment with my characters, world-building, and voice. It's pretty awful and cringe-worthy in some places, but that's first drafts for you.
