ERIN JO ELDRY was born and raised in the Florida panhandle, cultivating a passion for storytelling from a very young age. She graduated from Stetson University in 2012, where she received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theatre with a minor in Creative Writing. While attending her last semester, she participated in a student outreach program to facilitate creative writing courses for the inmates of a men’s correctional facility outside of Jacksonville.

 

In early 2016, Eldry moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in Entertainment, but relocated back to Florida in 2021 as a result of the pandemic.

 

Today, Eldry lives in central Florida with her wife, continuing to follow her creative spirit outside of her daytime work in Education. Selections of her poetry, flash fiction, and short stories have appeared in various literary anthologies from Wild Ink Publishing and Bunker Squirrel Magazine.
