About Amanda Kay Oaks
writing, blogging, and reading tarot
Hi there! I’m a Pittsburgh based writer, making words about:
*Travel
*Mental health
*Books
*Identity/Self
*Tarot/Witchy Things
You can find an extensive catalog of published work at my website, my Medium profile, and my blogs, Your Book Friend and Running Into Joy.
If you like my work, please consider buying me a coffee. After all, my writing is largely fueled by iced caramel lattes with oatmilk!
Thanks so much for your support!
