Erynn Wakefield

I am a twenty-one year old writer who has been writing almost as long as I have been reading. I write short stories, novels, poetry and prose, and screenplays and my short story, "Alphabet Soup," is currently published in the online journal Prometheus Dreaming. I also self-published a short verse novel following my high school graduation in 2018.
