Amie McCracken - iAMalive Photography, Amie McCracken
I have been a writer since my childhood. Stories about unicorns and fairies were what I began with, but now I write novels and freelance articles.
I have a Bachelor of Arts in English and a second major in photojournalism. I run my own business with photography and stationery with my blog. Before that I worked as a veterinary technician with an Equine veterinarian in Colorado.
Now I am living with my husband in Germany enjoying the life of an expat. Books and reading have always been my passion and living over here is giving me the chance to really explore all kinds of stories. I'm also getting the chance to learn German. My husband and I are looking forward to exploring Europe while we are here, with my camera and pen along for the ride.
