THE AUTHOR

Hello book lovers, I'm E.S JEAN or simply Erica. I'm a Haitian-American author getting ready to publish my first novel and I couldn't be more excited. (okay im slightly terrified tbh)

I started reading books when I was around 8 (Thank you Junie B. Jones) and then elevated towards more mature love stories thanks to my older sister's collection (Thanks sis) since then I've been exposed to so many wonderful love stories crafted by such talented writers who I will now be amongst and it feels surreal.

Fun facts about me:

- FL born & Raised

- The Youngest amongst my brother & sisters

- Driving gives me anxiety... so yeah, we don't do that (Passenger princess 👑)

- Favorite color is blue

- Former Preschool Teacher for 10 years

- Christian Girlie
