Exclusive Video! A Day in the Life of Amy Alward: Travelling and Writing for The Potion Diaries Series

We’re taken into a wondrous but dangerous world in Amy Alward’s magic-filled adventure – The Potion Diaries – in which we meet mermaids, centaurs and unicorns and discover merpearls, salamander dust, eluvian ivy and more. An enthusiastic traveller and researcher, Amy is inspired by the world around her, and the exciting things that she discovers whilst exploring often make their way into her stories. As she said in our exclusive interview, “so many of the ideas for the world of The Potion Diaries come from real life, and that’s why I travel – to continue to learn about the world, and the vast, diverse mythologies that exist.”

In this exclusive video, Amy takes us through a day in her life whilst travelling and writing in the Galapagos Islands! And we have to say, it’s a pretty extraordinary day! Watch the video below to find out more.
