The Day Before

Welcome to The Day Before.

I'm Erica—an author, lifelong writer, storyteller, and student of human nature.

Here you'll find short stories, book discussions, storytelling, and the occasional deep dive into the psychology, sociology, and history that inspire unforgettable characters.

I hold a master's degree in Criminal Justice and bachelor's degrees in Psychology and Sociology, and I've spent years studying why people do what they do. That curiosity shapes everything I write—from cozy mysteries and literary fiction to dark psychological stories and discussions about crime, society, and the human condition.

Whether you're here to discover new books, enjoy original fiction, or simply spend a cozy afternoon with a cup of coffee, I'm so glad you're here.

New videos feature writing, storytelling, books, creativity, and whatever fascinating rabbit hole we're exploring that day.

Grab a warm drink, settle in, and welcome to my story.
