Amanda E. Biden has been writing since she was old enough to hold a pencil.

Amanda was born on Vancouver Island and grew up in Clearbrook, BC. She moved often growing up, living in Nakusp, Langley, Abbotsford, and even as far as Regina, Sask.

She has been writing stories, poems and journals her whole life. She has written poems for a couple of anthology books. Amanda has written a few eulogies that ministers and priests have used in their services. She has also had articles written in various local newspapers.

Amanda has one flaw in her writing-a knack for greeting cards. Many friends and family members have received greeting cards tailored to their special event.

When she needs a break from writing, she is painting, reading, playing video games or camping with her family.

Currently, Amanda is attending UCFV, for further studies in creative writing, poetry and drama. She attends Ram’s Head Writer’s Group weekly and her writing has already benefited from being a part of the Ram’s Head group; she is thankful to be a part of something bigger than her tiny room and white computer.

She hopes to write children’s stories in the future and to one day finish the novel she started 2 years ago.
