My name’s Amanda Claire, but you can call me Mandi Dandi. I’m a creative and emotional person.

I’m twenty-five years old, being born June 19th, 1993. As a cis-woman, I go by feminine pronouns (she/her.) I’m gray-asexual, however I'm very romantic. I'm an assistant store manager at Claire’s, and I feel no desire to pursue my talents as a career, thus awarding myself with the title "retail bitch" for life. To classify myself within analyzed categories: my MBTI type is ISFP, the “composer artisan”, my enneagram is number 9, that being “love”, and my moral alignment is undeniably “chaotic-good”.

As for my interests, I love drawing, playing video games, flowers, going swimming, collecting stickers, playing with glitter glue, summertime, reading manga, anything from the 90s, girls, the ocean/beach, and (as you might’ve likely guessed,) writing.

A few of my favorite fictional series (and characters) include:

•The Legend of Zelda (Ravio)
•The World Ends with You (Shiki Misaki)
•Kingdom Hearts (Riku)
•Kagerou Project (Takane Enomoto)
•Harvest Moon (Luna)
•RWBY (Oscar Pine)
•Angels of Death (Rachel Gardner)
•Mother/Earthbound (Kumatora)
•Clannad (Kyou Fujibayashi)
•Pokémon (Iris, Misty)
•Fragile Dreams (Crow)
•Kodomo no Omocha (Sana Kurata)
•Kid Icarus (Dark Pit)
•Doki Doki Literature Club (Natsuki)
•Lucky Star (Tsukasa Hiiragi)
•Cardcaptor Sakura (Sakura Kinomoto)
•Shugo Chara (Utau Hoshina)
•Animal Crossing (Rosie, Marina)
•Michiko to Hatchin (Michiko Malandro)
•Tokyo Mew Mew (Berry Shirayuki)

In terms of both my writing and art, I enjoy creating works about deep connections and human emotions. And women. Because I love women. I feel most like myself when I’m creating things, and I put so much of myself into the things I do. I’m very emotional, and it’s often reflective in my writing.

My icon, as well as all of my story illustrations, were drawn by me! If you'd like to see more of my artwork, my username is "mandidandi" on deviantArt.

My life’s motto, whether I want to live by it or not, is “wear your heart on your sleeve".

You know how they say, "for every cigarette you smoke, you lose seven minutes of your life"? Well, if you change "cigarette you smoke," to, "time someone comments on my writing saying it made them emotional," then change "you lose," to "I gain," and "minutes," to "years," you'll have a pretty good concept of my life-span. If you're still unclear upon how powerful I am, allow me to provide you with a few testimonials:

Thanks for your contribution to the cause. I'm immortal.

But, in seriousness, I'd like to give a sincere thank you to not only those quoted above, but every single person who's commented on my stories. Knowing I've found any sort of support for this part of my life means so much to me, I could have never imagined even one person would enjoy the things I wrote, much less over two-hundred.
