Amanda E. Clark, President and Editor-in-Chief, founded Grammar Chic in 2008.  Amanda, who prides herself on her combined personality of being left-brained and a perfectionist, holds degrees in Journalism, Political Science and English. She started her business after years of working freelance and in marketing in the corporate world for a variety of legal, payroll and human resource companies, as well as surviving a few years of law school.  Amanda began her business to help other writers find their voice and make their words come alive on paper.  She aims to work with others to make their dream of being published become a reality or help them make their document, article or resume shine!

Amanda lives in Lake Wylie, South Carolina, with her husband, Kevin, and their two dogs, Matilda, an English Bulldog, and Oliver Pickles, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy.

Kevin Clark joined the Grammar Chic, Inc. team in 2010 as the Director of Operations and Marketing after it was realized that the company was growing exponentially, and an added layer of support and direction was needed in order to accommodate client needs, meet deadlines and make the company run smoothly.  With a degree in finance and a head for organizational development, Kevin has been instrumental in restructuring the Grammar Chic, Inc. offices and operations processes to ensure efficiency, high-quality customer service and follow-through that is imperative in this niche industry.  It is because of Kevin that the Grammar Chic, Inc. writers can do what they do best, namely, write their hearts out, and stay focused on delivering the best-in-class work product clients have come to expect.

Ashley Wiederhold joined the Grammar Chic, Inc. team in 2010 as a Writer and Editor.  Ashley received a Bachelor of the Arts in English Literature and Philosophy from Florida State University, and also studied Psychology.

As an avid reader, her literary interests span classic and modern fiction and nonfiction.  Her writing ability covers the creative and the technical, and she is an important member of the Grammar Chic team.  She has experience with a variety of writing styles and formats, and is eager to produce high-quality work product that lives up to the expectations of the Grammar Chic client base.

                       Josh Hurst, Associate Writer and Editor
                                        Connect with Josh on LinkedIn

With a writing style that conveys a stone-faced gravitas and an authorial voice that cries out from unfathomable depths of mystery and intrigue, Josh Hurst has been called the Bruce Springsteen of the literary consultancy world - or, at the very least, a poor man's Bob Seger.  He joined the Grammar Chic team as a Writer and Editor in 2011, and while he relishes every minute of it, he'd rather you not refer to him as a "grammar chick."

A regular film and music critic for Christianity Today and a staff reviewer for the rock and roll revue Stereo Subversion, Josh has also been published in Image and Relevant.  He's something of a geek when it comes to pop music and film criticism, but his literary interests also encompass the poetry of the modernists, the short stories of Flannery O'Connor, and basically anything to come out of the Harlem Renaissance.  He also loves Kurt Vonnegut and T.S. Eliot, but thinks Walt Whitman is sorely overrated and wouldn't read another James Joyce novel for all the curry in London.
