I'm Erin, a 27-year-old translator from the Netherlands, and I've been writing since I was 7. 

I'm a disabled lesbian, and most of my books feature disabled and/or queer characters. You can expect my books to be slow-burn romances.

Currently, I'm working on a Young Sheldon fanfic about Mary Cooper, who is definitely very straight and has no feelings whatsoever for her childhood best friend Jeanie Lucas. Ahem. (This story can be read even if you're unfamiliar with the show.)

My first completed novel, "Because You're Different", tells the story of June, a girl with cerebral palsy, who falls in love with her best friend Sam's older brother Nathan, but she wonders if anyone will ever love her back.
(This is a straight romance, written when comphet was still messing with my head).
