My preferred name is Amelia. I like to write poetry, and to read everything from Noam Chomsky to Jane Austen  to those cozy mysteries where a cat solves a murder in a seaside bakery. My favorite genre of book varies because I’m a mood reader. Picking an all-time favorite  movie is too daunting, but one film I enjoyed in theaters recently was The Conjuring: Last Rites. I am not currently working on any ongoing projects. However, I recently had a poem published for the first time in the summer edition of Poetic Reveries. I look forward to working with you all!
