Amyen Fielding

Amyen Fielding is a Marriage and Family Therapist, who after years of talking herself out of it, is trying her hand at writing. She has been published in the Los Angeles Review and accepted into Stanford's Novel Writing Program.

“I Lost My Faith in God When I Was Nine Years Old” and “Longing”

whispers the woman sitting next to me.
I’ve seen her here before–drinking alone,
her skin heavy with loss.
This close, the taste of her regret is pungent,
and is swallowed with each sip of my vodka-tonic.
