EB Girard

I’m Emily Bump Girard—writer of literary fiction rooted in the emotional truths of Appalachia. By night, I’m a hospital PA; by dawn, I’m crafting stories set in Radiant, VA, where recovery, family, and grace intertwine. emilygirardwriter.com #amwriting #upmarketfiction

I’m querying my debut novel, A Hundred Ways to Say I Love You—an emotionally layered, upmarket literary novel set in the mountain town of Radiant, Virginia. Told in multiple POVs, it’s a story of chosen family, unexpected love, and the quiet revolutions that shape us. #AmQuerying
