FinalistBio
I intend to get a degree Communications with a minor in Marketing and English. While in college, I plan to build my resume through interning and working for the newspaper. After I graduate, I hope to get an internship with one of the big 5 publishers then be offered a starting position with them. Through this process, I will work on perfecting my writing craft so I can be an author one day.
Today, I love to write novels. I've published many under the pen name Erin Hylands.
I am also a lifeguard and am learning skills through this that will carry me in my writing journey.
