by Erin Vincent (Author)

This is the gripping true story of how one devastating moment tears a family apart and how love and strength come together to rebuild what was lost.

"Compelling... tinged with the rawness only real life can provide." --Entertainment Weekly

I am just like you.
I get bored in school.
I goof off with my friends.
I fight with my family.
I have big dreams.
I am just like everyone else.
And then, in a split second, I'm not.

It's just another October day until Erin's parents are hit by a speeding tow truck. Mom dies instantly. Dad dies one month later, after doctors assure Erin he's going to make it. Now Erin and her sister are left to raise their baby brother--and each other.

Grief Girl will break your heart and then fill you with hope, time and time again.

Author Biography

Erin Vincent has worked as a journalist, a fashion designer, a theater actress, a photographer's assistant, a tailor to the stars, and a bartender, and has served meat pies and mushy peas late at night from a roadside van in Sydney. She now spends her days (and nights) as a writer and a youth counselor. Erin divides her time between her hometown of Sydney, Australia, and Los Angeles. She lives with her artist husband, Adam Knott (aka Adam James K), a one-eyed goldfish named Reginald, and a sweet little cat named Foofee. Sadly, her beloved pet crab Charlie died after sticking around long enough to help her get through the writing of Grief Girl. RIP, Charlie.
