Pen name: Amy

How many years have I been treading this Earth? Nineteen

Where I call home: Buckinghamshire, UK

My place of labour: Coventry University, UK

Reading for? BSc Natural Hazards

Divorced/beheaded/died? Single. And very much alive.

Interests, with bells on: I'm passionate about horse riding, which I've been doing since I was three. My life wouldn't be the same without it - right down to my RSI injury and weak ankle - and I miss how little I get to ride whilst studying another interest, Natural Hazards. To you and I that's volcanoes, tsunamis, violent weather, etc, amongst other things. I also love the BBC series Being Human; vampire or no, I would let John Mitchell/Aidan Turner bite my neck any day. Amidst this, I love writing fiction on top of drawing, reading and procrastinating. I'm a highly accomplished procrastinator.

Favourite pages to flick: Memoirs of a Geisha, the Harry Potter series, the Discworld series, and anything by Philippa Gregory or general historical fiction. And any Shakespeare, because I'm a nerd like that. Hamlet ftw.

What beat's are dropping? I'll listen to pretty much anything but I love rock and metal. My favourite band would probably have to be... AFI.

Current stalking victims: Aidan Turner & Dylan Moran. And somewhat Paul Rhys.

Fun, useless facts: - I'm so special I was born face down, resulting in a large bruise across my forehead

- So far in my short life I've lived in Edinburgh, Abingdon, Lindfield, Haywards Heath, Seaford, Winslow, Little Horwood, Coventry.

- My teacher refused to predict me higher than a D for English Literature for my A-Levels, so guess who went and got a B after receiving an A for their Hamlet/Blake paper? Someone was embarrassed.

- I climbed Snowdon in a pair of £10 trainers. Skills.

Ink and parchment: So far I don't have any fiction that I wish to submit, but that's being worked on. Some may come soon!

So what can you label me? Nothing. You can't - I wear thick eyeliner and black nail varnish, listen to heavy music and have a fringe going on, but I'm also not afraid to wear colour and have very girly moments. I'm just me.
