My short story, "Damp Wind and Leaves" is available for your reading pleasure at Amazon Shorts!
I wrote "Damp Wind and Leaves" in college for a Fiction Writing Workshop. Inspired by my favorite holiday, Halloween, which is pivotal to the story, as is young love. I met my first true love, Keith at Ithaca College. We didn't last, but the tender moments we shared inspired me to reflect on our relationship.

Advanced praise for Apple of My Eye:
"Amy Grech has a cinematographer's eye, and a surgeon's hand—at once brutal and tender, unsettling yet humane. These stories linger like traces of an acid trip. Highly recommended!"
—Jay Bonansinga, National Best-Selling Author of Twisted, Frozen, and
The Sinking of the Eastland

Complements of John Skipp, Circia 1996:
HWA WEEKEND IN NYC
"You weren't there. You missed it. Why should I tell you anything? Okay, okay. . . so Stephen King didn't show up even after Uncles Bob Weinberg and Harlan Ellison made us promise to behave. (See if we ever promise THAT again!) Other than God not descending from Mt Maine everything else was both productive and fun and hey, it's New York, expensive.
"Admittedly Ellison's presence was a major plus. His packed scheduled rant wasn't anything I hadn't heard before, but was, as always, a good show. The rest of the time he was gracious and charming. He even gave Amy Grech $5 to buy a t-shirt. And if he helped pump up the level of the gig by bringing on some pros and providing some content, then it was obvious that the gig energized him. The youngsters idolized him, the elders offered respect and we gave him two awards."
