Amy Hammond “I started writing poetry when I was fifteen years old. My poem about my connection to the ocean, “The Sea” was published in the high school newspaper. I started surf-ing at eleven years, so the ocean already had its grasp in my life. Surfing has been my passion for decades.

I have been influenced and enjoyed the writings of many authors. Writers like Pablo Neruda, Nikos Kazantzakis, and Richard Brautigan have been inspiring, but I don’t want to limit the strength of so many other inspirations. It would be sad if we only hung one artist’s paintings on our walls when there are an unlimited number of amazing artists out there, and working in so many limitless mediums. The Universe presents many wonderful people and places for our adventures to unfold, and I believe those adventures should be lived with gusto, grace and confidence. This is what I write about, the passion and sojourns of romance and of surfing. And I feel that this is the spice of life, so fill your plate!”
