https://www.carrieschronicles.com/about-carrie
Bestselling author, actress, social media influencer, anti-bullying activist...
At only 17 years old, CARRIE BERK already has a life’s worth of accomplishments under her belt. Patch.com recently called her “a whirlwind of a young woman” and Bella Magazine declared her “an ambitious and dedicated boss babe.”
A bestselling children’s book author with 21 books to her credit, Carrie penned her first book Peace, Love and Cupcakes, when she was only in second grade. At the time she was writing an extensive food review/recipe blog entitled “Carrie’s Cupcake Critique” which garnered her the title “The Cupcake Queen” from The Cake Boss himself, Buddy Valastro. The Cupcake Club series went on to publish 12 books (selling 400,000+ copies worldwide), and became an award-winning Off-Broadway show and featured selection in 2017’s New York Musical Festival. Carrie not only co-wrote the script for the play, but starred in it as well, earning her critical praise and a NYMF award for Outstanding Individual Performance. Carrie’s second series, Fashion Academy, stems from her passion for fashion. The six-book series also became an Off-Broadway production at Vital Theatre and is currently licensed worldwide by Tams-Witmark/Concord Music Publishing. Her latest series, Ask Emma (Bonnier Publishing), springs not just from her boundless imagination, but from her personal experience as a teen lifestyle blogger and someone who has experienced cyberbullying firsthand. Ask Emma launched in 2018 at Book Expo America and Book Con with book three of the series hitting shelves this past fall.
