Here’s all you ever wanted to know about the author and other random facts.
Name: Mandy
Birthday: October 1
Location: Nashville, Tenn.
Contact Info: Email me!
My best description of myself: word nerd, editor, friend, lover of music, reader, writer, dog lover, jeans-and-T-shirt kind of girl, sister, aunt-to-be, daughter, twin, perfectionist
Favorite Musicians: Nickel Creek, Andrew Peterson, Ryan Adams, Damien Rice (sometimes), Caedmon’s Call, Andy Davis, Randall Goodgame, Coldplay (though I’m a bit over Chris Martin and sometimes the entire band), Marc Broussard, David Gray, and too many more to list. (See Facebook if you want to know more.)
Favorite Movies: Field of Dreams, Where the Heart Is, Almost Famous, Elizabethtown, Walk the Line (and whatever I’m forgetting or haven’t seen and haven’t fallen for yet)
Favorite Authors: Anna Quindlen, Jane Austen, Donald Miller (though we don’t always agree), most people who write psychological thrillers or legal dramas. I’ve also read a lot of Nicholas Sparks, who I refuse to count among highbrow writers because of the obvious pulling-on-the-heartstrings he employs to get a reaction from his readers (but I still cry).

Ah, another Nickel Creek fan, I thought I was the only one who appreciated their talent. And Field of Dreams is my movie, “Dad’s movie” in this house. The ending tears me up everytime.
Peace,
