Hello, I'm Amy B. Scher.

I write and teach on the topics of healing, human-ing, and writing & creativity.

I’m the bestselling author of four books, which have been translated into sixteen languages. My work has been featured in The Washington Post, Cosmo, Good Morning America, CNN, CBS, The Los Angeles Review of Books, New York Daily News, The Rumpus, Thrillist, and more.

As a sought-after editorial strategist, I’ve helped super cool brands—from Harley-Davidson to Thrillist and others—create quality content that pops. I also work with other writers to help them find their artistic voice, bring their ideas into reality, and stay totally sane while doing it.

I live with my beautiful wife and my bad cat in New York City, where we spend most of our time planning our next adventures and our next meals.
