In the words of Amanda: “Hello everyone! My name is Mandie. I am a 5th grade teacher, and a mother of two children, 2 dogs, a cat, 4 chickens, and 5 rabbits.

I love to inspire my children and students to write and create art. Inspiration can come when you least expect it, and from the unlikeliest of places. Just like in my home and classroom, there will be crafts made, stories written, and advise given; all with the idea of including the subscriber in the creation of the products. My goal in life is to inspire others, and help them realize their potential. It doesn’t matter how old or young a person is. People of any age or ability can create things. I can’t wait to make amazing things together. Let’s write short stories in a round robin, paint, draw, and create!”
