“Creativity has always found me, whether it was through painting, mix media art, drawing, sewing, wood working, floral arranging, journaling, crafting, but it wasn’t until a trip to Ireland and the UK in September of 2018 I found storytelling. It was my second night staying in a cozy, old brick Airbnb on a cobblestone street in Edinburgh Scotland, when I had a vivid dream where from the antique store across the street, a mysterious object was reflecting the electric blue light from the full moon in the shape of a door on the side of my wardrobe. Of course, I awoke before seeing what was on the other side of this mystical door, but I did awake with this powerful impression that I needed to write this story. In January 2019 I found the Ottawa Writer’s Workshops where I devoured every morsel of novel writing knowledge and within a year, I had written my first 70,000-word manuscript. No publisher would touch it because the writing wasn’t strong enough, so I wrote another novel, and another one. The Unsung Song of a Wren is the sixth novel I have written and my first novel to be greenlit by a publisher.”

Erin has found her niche in writing mystery and literary fiction with a paranormal twist. She is currently writing the second Wren Roussel mystery and editing her manuscript titled, Welcome to Marigold Horizons (literary fiction), which is about five souls that find themselves trapped in the funeral home where their cremated remains have been abandoned.
