Erin lives in the Pacific Northwest, with her trusty umbrella and the characters in her head, who are all clamoring to have their story told. Words have been an important part of her life ever since she received a manual typewriter for her tenth birthday and she used it to write her very first novel. She’d like to officially apologize to Beverly Cleary for essentially writing very bad Ramona fan fiction. In the past, she has written movie and television news and reviews for a number of popular websites, but has chosen to currently focus on her fiction.
