About Erica Gallegos
During the workday, Erica helps businesses reduce their environmental footprint, but she spends her evenings developing fantasy worlds!
She mainly operates in the fantasy, sci-fi, and adventure genres (but never omits a slow-burning romantic subplot). She aims to write inclusively, diversely, and boldly enough that someday, bigoted white men will label her a "Nasty Woman."
Her writing journey began in fifth grade when she wrote and illustrated her first book, Running Rain. Thirteen years later, she became a "Wattpad Creator" on the popular writing platform—namely for her book series, The Ephemeral, which she drafted in high school. While on Wattpad, her novel Breeder won a Watty Award and garnered over 650,000 reads, and in 2022, she was asked to speak on a worldbuilding panel at WattCon (LA).
Due to popular demand, these early works are moving to Amazon. But as soon as this publishing process concludes, Erica plans to dive into her next fantasy saga: The Godsgiven Chronicles.
