Musings on historiography
I am, by training, a historian. I am also an anthropologist and a political scientist, but by far the most formal training, time, and money spent has been as a historian. Yes, I know I’m a writer, too, but that is a state of being, not my degree(s). But it also does certainly tie into …
Novembers past and November to come

About
Erin Klitzke is a self-confessed gamer chick, geek-girl, and writer living in Michigan. This site is a home for her musings, ramblings, and rantings unconfined to any specific topics. Her major interests include history, writing, Renaissance festivals, science fiction and fantasy, tabletop RPGs, and various console and computer RPGs. She lives in western Michigan, near the university where she earned her bachelor’s degrees. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in History and Anthropology, a Bachelor of Science in Political Science and Human Rights, and a Master of Arts in History. At one point, she considered pursuing a PhD in history but has since set that notion aside.
She’s currently working on a dozen projects at once, including a few projects left over from Novembers past, When All’s Said and Done, Awakenings, The Last Colony and Ashes to Ashes. She’s also hard at work on the sequels to Epsilon: Broken Stars, Epsilon: Shattered and Epsilon: Redeemer as well as the next several installments of the UNSETIC Files series (Lost and Found), among many other yarns.
Her master’s thesis on the uses of the Arthurian legend by Edward I and Edward III of England has been published as Intersection with the Once and Future King and is available as an ebook where books are sold. Someday she may even return to that research and see where it takes her.
She can be contacted via e-mail at doc (at) embklitzke (dot) com or at athensmcleod (at) hotmail (dot) com.
