My name is Amanda Amory, also known as Mandy, and I am a 38 year old aspiring writer.

I have self-published three eBooks on Smashwords and Amazon (and am working on my fourth), but to be able to walk into a book store and be able to pick up a book that I've written, and know that others could do the same, and more importantly, enjoy them and want to read more, is ultimately what I'm striving for.

My career to date has been in retail, but with my degree in Writing, a career in the media is something that I also strive for. (That, and the perfect figure, the perfect man and the perfect life - in that order!)

When I'm not writing my fourth book, which is called "The Redferns - A Celebrity Family" and centres on an extended showbiz clan who are systematically targetted by a madman out for revenge, I also enjoy writing scripts and entering script competitions. Many of my scripts can be found on my website. I also enjoy watching a wide range of TV, reading a wide range of books - Jackie Collins, Carole Matthews, Kathy Lette and the lesser known Mary Jane Staples are firm favourites - playing Words With Friends and Song Pop on my smartphone, pub quizzes and playing badminton when I get the chance.

Thanks in advance for reading my work. Hope you enjoy them.
