I write shorts, novellas, novels, and children's literature. I mostly write YA speculative fiction, psychological thrillers, romantic comedies, and fantasy. 
My Children's books and YA Fantasy are published under the name MayBeth. My YA paranormal romance and horror fiction are published under Amy Black.

I love the outdoors. I love to read! I don't get political. Writing is my escape from all that unpleasantness. I don't share political opinions or gossip.

I love to escape into worlds created by other writers, and I like to share my worlds through my writing. :)

I always try to improve my craft, so constructive feedback and votes are welcome! If you are enjoying what I'm writing, please vote. I'd love to see which parts of my stories you enjoy reading; that helps me with my creative process. :)

I don't do swap reads or trade votes, so please don't ask. If I'm interested in something other creators have crafted, then I will give it a try and an honest vote or follow. :)
I do giveaways from time to time, so stay in the loop. ;)
