Erica Ruppert
Downstream, fiction, Issue 37, December 1, 2016
Get to know Erica...
Birthday? April 22
When did you start writing? Around age six
When and what and where did you first get published? 2013, a poem titled "The Queen in Red" in Rose Red Review.
What themes do you like to write about? My main themes are loss and regret.
What books and/or stories have most resonated with you as an author? Why? How do these stories and their characters find expression in your work? Many of Tanith Lee's and Angela Carter's short works have been influences, both for the beauty of the language and the strange, mythic undertones. Also, John Steinbeck for his deceptively simple voice that captures both the intimacy of a single life and the sweep of history in almost the same breath. I aspire to be even a shred as good as any of them, and keep their voices in mind when I write.
