Amanda Beth Flynn was born and raised in Massachusetts and considers New England the most beautiful place on earth. Her writing is inspired by her unconventional childhood-growing up as the oldest of eleven children-her favorite authors: J.M. Barrie, L.M. Montgomery, L.M. Alcott, C.S. Lewis, Elizabeth George Speare, Agatha Christie, and Rosemary Sutcliffe, and her connection to nature.
​
Amanda has been writing poems and stories since she first put pen to paper and dreaming big dreams of publishing her work for decades. "The Poems of Lucy Snowe" is her first self-published offering.

In addition to writing, Amanda's hobbies include spending time in nature, psychology and astrology, crochet, and all things creative. She lives with her partner, Ryan, and their dogs, Koopa and Navi, in a small town and watches reruns of "Gilmore Girls" all year-round.
