About this author

Me?

My name's Eric. I'm a writer / blogger / book marketing guy living in Philly with my chinchilla (Mittens) and bunny (Rory). I grew up in NJ and moved to Philadelphia to pursue my MA in English literature at Arcadia University. I decided to stay.

I happily work for Quirk Books (Pride & Prejudice & Zombies, Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children). Here I spend my days slinging books around the Internet to hungry readers. Are you a book blogger? Watch out, I may try to send you some free books. ;)

When I'm not scouring Twitter and Facebook, I enjoy writing. I run the popular Philly blog Geekadelphia, where I rant about local geek culture. I also just released my first book, Textual Healing. Let's be friends. :)
