Erin Coduti

Formerly a content writer for DealNews, Erin Coduti now brings that experience to the blog team as a freelancer. Previously, she wrote and edited web content for television news station WLFI Lafayette, as well as a literary fan magazine. While she often does a convincing job of passing as normal, she's actually a total nerd — books, linguistics, card games, board games, tabletop games, video games, you name it. She also aspires to be a novelist, so if you see her name later in a bookstore, you can remember you saw her here first!
