Amanda Marples is a social worker with 20 years' experience in community mental health, including extensive work with trauma survivors. Amanda is also a writer and has been featured in a number of publications. She is the creator of Reconcile Creative, a mentoring service for neurodiverse writers in the hope that she can help to level the writing and publishing playing field. This is a subject close to her heart since Amanda, her partner and two children, are all neurodiverse in one way or another. It's chaos most days, but she wouldn't change it even if she could.
