Amy Voltaire was born in Virginia and has lived there her whole life. She makes her living as an accountant and writes in her spare time. Her debut novel, My Name Is Erin, and My Mom's an Addict, is contemporary fiction for young adults. She loves these things: British accents, reading, her dog and cat, her family and friends, and sweets. She can't walk in high heels, and her friends claim she's on the fashion police's Most Wanted list.
