Healy earned her bachelors degree in English with a minor in communication studies from Westmont College in Santa Barbara, Calif., and began her career as an editor for Christian Parenting Today during the mid-1990s. After advancing from assistant editor, to associate editor, to editor while working for the magazine, she moved on to serve as a book editor for WaterBrook Press. She founded WordWright Editorial Services in 2002.
Healy began working for Dekker the same year, editing 12 of his well-known, heart-pounding stories, before collaborating with him as a co-author on Kiss. Her first novel, Kiss is the story of Shauna, who wakes from a coma to find she is responsible for a terrible accident that left her brother permanently
disabled and her recent memories erased. She discovers she has a paranormal ability to steal memories from others, a capability that she uses to clear her name and find out what really caused the car accident. Burn is the story of one womans ultimate betrayal of friends and family and the far-reaching
consequences of her actions, featuring overarching themes of good vs. evil, guilt and regret, and the grace of second chances.
Her solo debut Never Let You Go follows a devoted, hard-working single mother who lives in the shadow her estranged husbands choices and a family tragedy. When troubling elements from her past suddenly return, her tenuous grip on life and her loved ones is threatened. Staggering supernatural events begin
spilling into her world, proving that Hell's fury is great, but Heaven's power is greater still. Healy currently resides in Colorado Springs, Colo., with her husband, Tim, and two children. She is the director of the Academy of Christian Editors, as well as a member of International Thriller Writers and
the American Christian Fiction Writers. Visit www.erinhealy.com for more information.
