Amanda Wills

Amanda Wills is the author of the Riverdale Pony Stories, which follow the adventures of pony-mad Poppy McKeever and her beloved Connemara Cloud.

Writing has always been a passion for the UK-based former journalist and police press officer.

Amanda wrote her first pony stories when she was still at school. Publishing The Lost Pony of Riverdale in 2013 was the realisation of a lifetime's ambition to become a fully-fledged author. The book now has more than 750 five star ratings on Goodreads.

Amanda has plenty more adventures in store for Poppy and Cloud. She's also planning more books for younger readers following the success of Juno's Foal, The Pony of Tanglewood Farm and The Midnight Pony.

When she isn't writing, Amanda enjoys riding, playing tennis and cycling in the leafy lanes around her home.

Amanda and her husband, fellow indie author Adrian Wills, live in Kent with their sons Oliver and Thomas. Find out more at www.amandawills.co.uk or at www.facebook.com/riverdaleseries/
