Overview: Amy was raised in Texas, then studied at Texas A&M, followed by a doctorate in veterinary medicine at A&M. Her sister forked off the family tree at a slightly different place and became a pediatrician. Both branches of medicine have a primary concern with “restraint” of the patient, but both types of healers still get bitten and peed on.
Amy wanted to become a writer early on, but thought she’d better learn a paying profession first. Still, getting up at 4:00 a m. for emergencies, or even having to work all day, then all night, and on into the next day doesn’t leave a whole lot of time for writing. As an assistant vet, it was common for her to make a midnight farm call where she first had to catch the cow before operating in the field by the lights of a pickup truck. She’s also been a stable hand, a horseback riding teacher, and a hyperbaric technician treating divers in decompression chambers. The worst job was as a secretary, very temporarily.
A writing breakthrough came in 1984 when she attended the famed Clarion workshop, taught by Robin Scott Wilson, Harlan Ellison, A.J. Budrys, Elizabeth Lynn, Damon Knight, and Kate Wilhelm. Amy is still working on the “reading assignments,” which included all of Shakespeare, Faulkner, and Hemingway.
