Welcome To My Life

Erica Drayton was born in the Bronx in NYC. She began writing stories almost immediately after she learned how to read and write from her mother, a former English teacher. As a gay, black, woman, Erica used storytelling as a way to express her feelings through poetry and fantasy novels at a young age.

After college, she took her continued passion for storytelling and developed it further, into writing short stories, eventually challenging herself to write 100 word stories every single day for 1,000 consecutive days.

Her latest dream project is writing a murder mystery series on her quest to becoming the next Agatha Christie!
