Amy Herrick is the author of two critically acclaimed novels for adults, At the Sign of the Naked Waiter  and The Happiness Code. She is also the author of Kimbo’s Marble, a fairytale read-aloud. Her most recent novel, The Time Fetch, is a modern day fantasy for middle graders and beyond. It is set in Brooklyn, NY, at the winter solstice when the door will sometimes open between this world and the one on the other side. Amy is currently at work on The Tiltersmith, a sequel to this last tale.

 

Amy lives with her family in Brooklyn, near Prospect Park. Prospect Park is the perfect place for a writer and her dog. They walk there every day looking for ordinary, wonderful, stinky and magical things.
