Amy Gillies - A. Gillies
I have had a variety of jobs in retail, food services and at one time, I worked as an Illussionist's Assistant with large exotic cats. I also enjoy volunteering my time at my daughter's school and helping the kids with their reading and grammar skills. Writing poetry, stories, children's stories, fiction and non-fiction has been a constant since about Grade 3 when I'd always be asking for more paper to continue writing story assignments. I truly love writing because it involves research and I'm always learning new things.
