Hey everyone,

My name is Mia Herrera and I’m your nerd girl for all things traditional games and books related.

Growing up, I was always interested in novels as a form of escape. My favourite pastime involved curling up on my living room couch to read. As I got older, I started feeling the itch to string together words of my own. That’s when my love for writing began. I love to attend writing workshops, retreats, readings, film festivals, and comics and gaming conventions to keep up to date with the things I love. A large part of my days are also spent writing freelance for online and print publications about the things I’m passionate about.

My expertise lies in writing feature articles, interviews, and reviews about gaming and books of all kinds. I love everything related to console and PC gaming, traditional gaming, movies, and books. I’m a big social media nerd too, and like many other nerd girls, I’m a prolific Twitter user. My Twitter feed may be found at www.twitter.com/miaherrera.

I am so happy to be a part of Nerd Girl Pinups – a site dedicated to girls and all they are and can be: Nerds in their own right, who really know their stuff and don’t need a penis to do it!

As previously mentioned, I will be writing columns regularly on traditional games and literature. Feel free to contact me with any questions, suggestions or feedback at miaherrera@nerdgirlpinups.com. I can’t wait to hear from you.
