Writing Bio
Annie has been writing since she was eight years old: scenes, plays and poetry. She has since written screenplays that have been optioned and had her award-winning web series, Karma's a Bitch produced by Roundabout Productions which was Best of the Web on Virgin America Airlines. She is a proud member of The Writers Guild of America West, The Dramatist Guild and The Authors Guild.
Annie's personal essays, poetry, and short fiction have been published in The Huffington Post, Tiny Buddha, El Portal Literary Journal, and P.S. I Love You. She writes coming-of-age screenplays and has three books out now: Dandy Day, A Quantum Love Adventure, and her first YA novel, Just a Girl in the Whirl (Speaking Volumes Press) and Brightness the Bird Girl (Mio Press).
In addition to writing, Wood is also a TV/Film/VO actor and an Internationally exhibited visual artist. She has a neurodiverse ADHD brain and meditates twice a day.
