Meet the author
Erika M Szabo
Erika M Szabo, a prolific and talented author with a fierce
intellect and a penchant for exploring uncharted territories, is a woman of
many skills and passions. She is known for her diverse range of writings that
span historical fantasy, magical realism, cozy mysteries, sweet romance, and
children's literature. Her writing style often reminded readers of Hemingway’s,
which is both evocative and visceral, transporting readers into the depths of the
characters' emotions with a few deft strokes of their pens.
Born in a small town nestled among the rolling hills of Hungary, Erika grew
up with a deep love for literature and storytelling. She devoured books from a
young age and soon began creating her own intricate worlds and characters. Her
gift for storytelling is evident to all those who know her, and she is
encouraged to pursue her passion.
As she grew older, Erika's thirst for adventure and new experiences led her to
travel the world. She lived in various countries, soaking up their cultures and
traditions, and incorporating them into her writing. Her travels also allowed
her to meet a diverse array of people, whose stories and perspectives she wove
into her novels.
Despite her literary success and acclaim, Erika remains a humble and
down-to-earth person. She often speaks of her belief in the power of words to
connect and heal, and her writing reflects this deep empathy and understanding
of human experience.
After negative experiences with publishers, she started her own company Golden Box Books Publishing to help
authors with book formatting, cover design, and navigating the complexities of
publishing.
Erika is also the founder of #OurAuthorGang,
a group of writers blogging together. This diverse group showcases the power of collaboration and the potential it has to elevate individuals and create something truly special.
Some of her notable works include: "Protected
by the Falcon": The first book in "The Ancestors'
Secrets" series. This urban fantasy/magical realism novel introduces
readers to a world of clan mysteries and ancient traditions.
The "Unbroken
Curse": A historical fantasy that explores an ancient curse cast
by a powerful witch sixteen hundred years ago, affecting families across
generations. “The
Seven Cozy Shorts” includes seven novellas ranging from
paranormal fantasy and unconventional relationships to futuristic love stories.
Some of Erika’s books are also published in Spanish,
Hungarian, and German as well as in audiobooks.
In addition to her novels, Erika has authored several children's books that
emphasize moral values, acceptance, and friendship. Titles such as "Pico
the Pesky Parrot" and "Look, I Can
Talk With My Fingers" aim to educate and inspire young readers.
Erika's multifaceted career reflects her passion for storytelling, art, and
supporting fellow authors in bringing their creative visions to life."
