I am pleased to welcome my friend, Amanda Hall. Writing is Amanda's life, though she says she has a hard time admitting that out loud. Regardless, there is no denying her talent! I love the intensity and honesty of Amanda's poetry. She is a gifted author who also writes short stories and novels. Though her work is as yet unpublished, we encourage her not to give up. It is simply a matter of time, and finding the right agent. Get to know Amanda Hall by stopping in and joining in the dialogue on her blogs.
