Amy Nevills originally hails from the great flat state of Illinois. Most of her childhood was spent reading about more exotic locations and dreaming of adventures. During her time in the Illinois National Guard, she met her true love and has now celebrated nearly 30 years together. Together they have circled around the Midwest, living in Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, and most recently Minnesota. They share four children and two spirited granddaughters. When not spending time with her clan or escaping in a book, Amy enjoys traveling anywhere the wind might take her.
