Eric Williams is a teacher and assistant football coach for Brunswick High School in Brunswick, Georgia. Prior, he was an Assistant Program Director and Athletics Coordinator for the Boys and Girls Club of Southeast Georgia, where he attended ever since the age of five.

He earned a degree in education from the College of Coastal Georgia in spring of 2016, and is currently working on his Master’s Degree in History from Clayton State University.
 

His first writing started in middle school with fan fiction, then developed the Lourdes Ridge Series as he learned of youth’s lack of reading and interest for books. Eric also coaches the Golden Isles LadyBugs, a youth basketball team, and continues to volunteer at his local Boys and Girls Clubs.
 

Inspire Me (p. 2017), focuses on Larissa McCrae and her time, adjusting to life at a new school, following her parent’s separation. Eric brings to light many teenage issues as described through his personal experiences and the accounts of some of the youth he’s worked with. It was followed by sequels, Enlighten Me (p. 2018) and Awaken Me (p. 2019).
