Creative Director & Founder, Immersedition

Website | Attendee Directory Profile

Amanda Havard thinks in stories. She writes books and songs, tells stories to people over coffee or in elaborate iPad apps, in short films or subtle photographs. Stories are her life. She is the author of the supernatural young adult series, The Survivors, a transmedia franchise with an online following of 4.5 million readers that is an amalgamation of all of her storytelling love combined. With two novels in the series currently available, the third installment of the series, The Survivors: Body & Blood, is set for release Summer 2013. Originally from Dallas, Texas, she now lives in Nashville, Tennessee, a place where creativity drips from the sap of the trees, radiates from the attitude of the population, and seeps from the concrete. She is a pioneer of the future of storytelling. The inventor of the ImmerseditionTM, patent-pending interactive book, an app that reinvents the reading experience, Havard is always looking for the next best story — and the most innovative way to tell it.
