ABOUT ERIN PHILLIPS

I am first and foremost a Christian, forgiven and redeemed by Jesus alone. He is my Savior, my King, my reason for living, and everything I do flows from that identity.

Stories teach the heart to believe, and I love writing stories that shine the Light into the darkest of nights. It is my deepest prayer that my books point readers back to Jesus, even without ever saying His name, being written from a Biblical worldview and tackling faith themes through allegory and fantasy.

My most notable novels are Biblical retellings, Realm Award Fantasy Finalist A CROWN OF CHAINS (Esther) and A BOND OF BRIARS (Ruth), written for girls who love popular YA fiction and are looking for stories that don’t pretend life is easy, acknowledge that perfection is impossible, and offer encouragement found only in Christ.

Besides writing novels, I also write and publish Christian musicals with my husband, Jeremy, at The Faithful Troubadour Publications. She graduated from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts with a B.F.A. in Costume Design & Technology, and lives in North Carolina with Jer and our happy corgis, Parker and Fable.
