Erin Baldwin is an author, a nurse, and a Jersey City, NJ native. Though she started writing at six years old, Wish You Were(n’t) Here is her debut novel. Her interests change often, but a few recent rabbit holes have been building miniatures, becoming a World Series of Poker champion, and making bracelets that say "Erin Baldwin Fan Club" (and giving them to people who do not want them). She can recite every line of every episode of Sabrina the Teenage Witch (1996-2003) and probably will.

She currently lives in Colorado without a dog, because her partner insists on abiding by the lease for some reason.

Here’s a fun puzzle:

When childhood rivals Juliette and Priya are forced to be summer camp cabinmates, they

ki_ _ each other.

(Not sure how to fill in the blanks? That’s okay! Neither are they.)

-

Two girls who have been rivals since birth—one a charming social media influencer and the other a jaded stoic—must find common ground when they're assigned to be cabinmates in Wish You Were(n’t) Here, Erin Baldwin’s debut queer enemies-to-lovers romcom.

-

Though Juliette and Priya are rivals, they refuse to be mean girls. They have a pact: be polite and stay the hell out of each other’s lives. But when Priya turns up at camp, the one place Juliette gets to be herself, all bets are off.

-

Wish You Were(n’t) Here is a young adult romcom that tackles the hyper-teenage feeling of knowing you’ll do something for the last time (i.e., your last year at summer camp). It’s a childhood-rivals-to-lovers story. No queer trauma. No coming-out stress. Just goofballs trying to have the best summer ever.
