Meet The Author
Eric Vance Walton is a poet, novelist, and essayist whose work explores the intersection of self-discovery, resilience, and the human condition. With a voice that is both introspective and accessible, Walton writes to awaken a sense of clarity and connection in an increasingly chaotic world.
His latest self-published poetry collection, Poems from the Edge of the Apocalypse, captures the quiet intensity of modern life through vivid imagery and soulful reflection. Eric’s work has been featured in literary journals, online publications, and heard on public radio. He also connects with a growing audience of readers through social media and live readings.
A lifelong writer and seeker, Eric began crafting stories and poems as a child and never stopped. He draws inspiration from nature, dreams, philosophy, and everyday beauty—often weaving in themes of transformation, simplicity, and spiritual inquiry.
When he's not writing, Eric enjoys quiet moments with his family, hiking wooded trails, traveling the world, and sipping ridiculously strong coffee while pondering the mysteries of the universe.
He currently lives and writes in Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota.
