Erin Good
Erin grew up in the Kansas City area and fell in love with writing at an early age. She met her husband (also named Aaron) in law school and, after two years of living long-distance, the pair married and decided to plant roots in Wichita. Their daughter was born in August 2016. Erin is a full-time attorney in private practice with McDonald Tinker PA. She also serves as Vice-Chair of the Board of Directors for League 42. When she's not working or watching baseball, you can find Erin chasing her lab Otis and telling him to "stop licking the baby!"
