Kathleen L. Erlich is a freelance writer who lives in Sacramento, California.
Wisconsin winters and a good book were made for each other. I learned to read for pleasure at a young age, whether it was Nancy Drew or Dickens. Then came the joy of writing: diaries and journals, letters to pen pals, relatives, and movie stars.
Imagine my excitement knowing that I could be a reader and a writer and enjoy a long career that demanded both. I loved college so much I never wanted to leave, so I became an English teacher and university administrator. Freshman composition was a great ride from the other side of the classroom.
I earned my B.A. from the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire (1971), M.S. in Education from the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse (1980), and teaching credential in English as a Second Language from the University of California-Davis (1998). Now that I'm retired, I live with my husband in Sacramento, California, where I enjoy creative writing, design art quilts and experiment joyfully in mixed media collage (including wordplay).
