ABOUT THE AUTHOR

My name is Amy and I’m a South Jersey girl, living Southern California so I get to attend a lot of Twilight related events. I’m an all around fangirl, not just Twilight, but Twilight rules my fan fiction writing. I'm Team Esme and Team Carlisle.

Follow me on twitter @OhMyCarlisle and check out my mostly Carlisle and Esme dedicated tumblr, Adventures in Cullenland. I'm an editor/administrator/reporter for PagetoPremiere.com.

If you have a question for Esme Cullen, she's happy to answer it on her tumblr,http://askesmecullen.tumblr.com/ and you can keep up with her on twitter, Esme Cullen.

I tend to avoid reading fan fiction canon stories so they don't influence what I have planned for The Esme Chronicles. I have bookmarked many stories that I look forward to reading when I'm done writing. Most of the stories I have favorited are lemony and are usually canon characters in non-canon situations/relationships.

My #1 source for Twilight research and information is the Twilight Lexicon. I also use the novels and now The Twilight Saga: The Official Illustrated Guide. Please note, that I outlined The Esme Chronicles a year and half before the official guide was published. The history of Carlisle and Esme in The Esme Chronicles is based on Steph’s telling of their story in the Correspondence with Stephenie on the Lexicon, not the official guide.

I was a Sunflower Award nominee for Master of Lemons in spring 2011, and nominated for the Sunflower Storyteller Award honoring "the author whose writing brightens up your day" for winter 2012.

Check out the August 2011 TwiFicDataBase Author Interview with me regarding Miracles and Mischief, and my other work.

If you write a review or ask a question I will always respond.

My beta team for The Esme Chronicles is sweetishbubble, and batgirll8968. (MelissaMargaret and December.LeNoir also have beta-ed)
My beta team for Miracles and Mischief is December.LeNoir and sweetishbubble. The one-shot betas were batgirll8968 and MarchHare5.
My fabulous fic sister is December.LeNoir. She's great for my ego and talks me through the difficult writing times.
