Getting to know someone can be tricky at the best of times, particularly when the only way to do that is through a computer screen. Yet, here we are. So, let me start by saying hello and welcome to Amy Louise Writes.

I grew up in a little village in the Midlands, and moved to Cheltenham for university in 2015. Now that I’ve graduated, I’m still figuring out what exactly I want from life, where I want to go, and what I want to do.

I love writing, always have. It’s my constant. That’s why I chose to study it at university and build up some sort of professional portfolio. I’ve written articles for fashion magazines, marketing companies and charity newsletters, as well as fictional stories for my degree. But I also wanted to write for fun, so I created Amy Louise Writes.

I love writing about things that I’m passionate about, and how our acts can have an impact on the way we feel. But I also enjoy just writing the occasional ’round-up’, where I discuss what I’ve been enjoying recently – from books to podcasts, YouTubers to music.

Life update…

I’m now working full-time in Cheltenham (after spending a few months back home with my parents, frantically applying for jobs). It’s a temporary role in marketing and, so far, it’s been pretty good. My boyfriend, Dom, (who I met at university) is also still living in Cheltenham, so it’s worked out quite well.

I’m renting a room in a professional house share, which I’m still getting used to. I’m only here until Christmas, when I’ll go back home to mum and dad (and dog).

So, if you’d like to see where my life takes me, then hit ‘follow’! If you’ve been here for a little while, then hey – good to see ya – and thanks for sticking around.
