Unfortunately this is not my kitten. I borrowed her for the photo op and promptly returned her.

I'm Beth! I'm a writer, editor, and writing coach, and I've been teaching writing at the university level for over 5 years. Here’s some cool stuff about me:

  • I’m Editor-in-Chief of OFIC Magazine, a literary magazine for writers in fandom.

  • I lead the Fanauthor Workshop, a bi-annual workshop also for writers in fandom.

  • I coach writers through major projects and offer other editing services. You can read testimonials from writers I’ve helped here.

  • I received my MFA in creative writing and pedagogy in 2018 from Miami University (Ohio, not Florida).

  • My work has been supported by the Sundress Academy for the Arts, Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts, and Hambidge Center residences, as well as the Tin House Workshop and New York State Summer Writers Institute.

  • I'm represented by Mariah Stovall at Trellis Literary Management.
