I'm a historical fiction writer obsessed with the past. Many time periods draw me in: I'm most compelled by the 1800s in America, but also love medieval Europe, ancient Egypt, Revolution-era France...on and on. I'm one of those people who will stop the car to get out and look at the roadside plaque. My novels: The Murderer's Maid: a novel of Lizzie Borden; The Witch's Trinity, about a medieval German woman accused of witchcraft by her own daughter-in-law; and Woman of Ill Fame, about a Gold Rush prostitute who solves murders. In the world of pseudonyms, I write young adult neo-Gothic horror as Lynn Carthage. I started life as a poet, with an MFA in poetry from the University of Tucson, Arizona, and then transitioned to historical fiction and young adult fiction. I'm a descendant of Mary Bliss Parsons, accused of witchcraft in 1600s Massachusetts, have a Jack Russell terrier as a rescue dog, and was a Yaddo fellow. I live with my husband and kids in the gold country area of Northern California and enjoy the historic sites around me whenever I get a chance. www.erikamailman.com and www.lynncarthage.com
