Her books—which include the Governor General’s Award–winning Stand on the Sky, Plain Kate, Sorrow’s Knot, and the science fiction duology The Scorpion Rules and The Swan Riders—have won a fistful of awards. Erin lives with her husband (who’s also a novelist), two teenage kids, a tabby named after a rock, a black cat named after a black hole, and an empty-headed, big-hearted dog named after the moon.
