 Amanda Brice
Amanda Brice is an intellectual property attorney just outside of the nation's capitol. A lawyer in Washington? No, there are none of those!
Ever since she was little, Amanda loved to write, but some of her earliest endeavors were less than spectacular. Still, Nancy Flew and the Mystery of the Lady Ghost was critically acclaimed by the strictest of literary critics, her 4th grade teacher. Amanda dreamed of becoming either a ballerina or an author, but her father convinced her to "do something practical," so she eventually went to law school and spent her time writing briefs and pleadings instead of fiction.
Still, the urge for creativity nagged at her, until one day, while she was working on an advanced law specialization degree in intellectual property, she decided that writing chick lit was much more fun than her paper on the patentability of indigenous medicinal methods. So she wrote the first 80 pages of her first novel instead, and begged her professor for an extension on the law paper. From that moment on, she was hooked and has been splitting her time between writing and practicing law ever since.
Amanda is a member of RWA, the Chick Lit Chapter, and a reviewer for Romance Divas.
In her spare time, Amanda enjoys dancing, reading, cooking, traveling, and obsessing over whether Duke will beat Carolina in basketball. Go Devils! You can keep up with her at her blog or her website.
