Biography :
Violinist turned author Erica Miner has had a multi-faceted career as an award-winning screenwriter, author, lecturer and poet. A native of Detroit, she studied music at Boston University, the New England Conservatory of Music, and the Tanglewood Music Center. After experiencing a variety of highs and lows in her quest to forge a career in New York City, Erica won the coveted position of violinist with the Metropolitan Opera Company.
When injuries from a car accident spelled the end of her musical career, Erica drew upon her lifelong love of writing for inspiration and studied poetry and screenwriting, winning a number of awards in both categories. After moving to the west coast, Erica honed her screenwriting skills with author and script gurus Linda Seger and Ken Rotcop. Erica’s ten screenplays, one of which is based on her award-winning debut novel, Travels with My Lovers, have won awards and/or placed in such competitions as WinFemme, Santa Fe and the Writer’s Digest. Her essays and articles have appeared in Vision Magazine, WORD San Diego and numerous E-zines.
Erica has completed both the novel and screenplay of her suspense thriller, Murder In The Pit, which takes place at the Met, and currently is at work on the second novel in her “FourEver Friends” series chronicling four young girls’ coming of age in the volatile 60s and 70s.
In addition Erica has developed a number of writing lectures and seminars on writing, which she has presented at various venues across the West Coast and on the High Seas. Topics range from "The Art of Self Re-Invention" to "Opera Meets Hollywood" and "Journaling for Writers: Mining the Gold of Your Own Experiences.” Details about Erica’s novels, screenplays, seminars and interviews can be found on her website, http://www.ericaminer.com.
Book Review :
"FourEver great reading! I love it. Very well drawn characters, a beautiful capturing of adolescence, first love, family and religious issues. You seem very close to the material, and these were characters I came to really like as my own friends. I also enjoyed the backdrop of JFK. You have a nice easy style... great to read."
Jonathan Widran, journalist, Los Angeles
