Erin Morgenstern is the author of The Night Circus. It is her first novel but people seem to think it might not be a bad idea for her to write another one, so she plans on doing that eventually. She also paints, wrangles kittens, buys more books than she can read in a timely manner, and drinks a great deal of tea. Erin currently lives in Boston, MA but will be moving later this year. Hopefully, by the time anyone reads this, she will know where. Ideally that future residence will have more bookshelves than her current one.
