About Me

Erica W. Jamieson crafts fiction and essays that dive deep into the messy business of being human—exploring identity, transformation, and the connections that bind us. A 2024-2025 Fellow at The Braid Theater and Breadloaf Writers' Conference alumna, her words find homes in both print and digital landscapes. When her flash memoirs leap from page to stage through The Braid Theater's live performances and StoryNosh YouTube series, they take on new life in actors' voices. In Los Angeles, Jamieson guides writers of all ages through the creative process in her workshops, believing that every generation has stories worth sharing. She once channeled this passion into founding Fiftiness, an all-women's platform celebrating fearless voices over fifty. She currently serves on the Advisory Council of The Braid Theater and is a past member of the Temple Isaiah Board of Directors. Having lived in New York, Detroit, Aspen, and Malibu, you'll find her in LA these days wrestling her first novel into existence, likely fueled by a frothy cappuccino and the company of her Whoodle, Cleo.
