Erica Sandifer has a bachelor’s degree from Mississippi Valley State University, where she learned to develop and magnify her writing talents. In 2013, Erica began working at Turn Row Book Company, a job that helped transform her into a structured writer. There, she began to read more books and learn new styles of writing. The blues would play over the loud speaker, which eventually inspired her to write the poem, "Delta Woman, Dammit" while working one day. Through passion and experience, she hopes to inspire other writers and citizens of all creeds for generations to come.
