She attended film school at Boston University, and then won a grant for a short film from Miami Light Project, available for viewing on YouTube. Amanda has worked on many blockbuster films. Assassins Wall was her first novel based on her original screenplay. Last Stop, Earth, is her first children's science fiction novella. Universe Olympics: Heat 1 is her third novel and writing adventure.She offers a new perspective on science fiction: "I wanted to write a fresh take on science fiction and what is expected of the genre. I wanted to appeal not only to people who already know they love sci-fi but also to a broader audience through sport."As an avid reader of science fiction, it was important for Amanda Dubin to bring to life realistic contemporary protagonists who deal in the real world, yet are faced with an extraordinary challenges. As a female sci-fi lover of both books and film, Amanda had noticed the huge gap for female authors and main characters in a conventionally male genre, and she is working diligently to remedy that situation.
