About Me
Hello and welcome! My name is Erin, and this is going to be the home for my mostly-monthly newsletter, full of updates on my creative life, random stories, and ideas about the craft of writing. The first post will be out October 9th, with some thoughts on travel and a look back at my wild summer.
So who am I and why should you want this? Well, depending on the day, I like to say either that I'm a writer of speculative fiction across formats or that I'm a writer of stories and games. My published work includes science fiction and fantasy short stories, TTRPG lore and adventures, short interactive fiction games, and script work for Zombies, Run! I'm also one of the hosts on the weekly writing podcast Writing Excuses and a creative writing teacher at UT-Austin.
