Available to hire
I’m Abby Arbeiter, a senior at Wichita State University majoring in Creative Writing with minors in Communications and English Literature. I’ve been actively involved in WSU’s Mikrokosmos Literary Magazine as an undergraduate fiction editor, and I’ve gained hands-on experience with reading, evaluating, and curating submissions, as well as editorial tasks with Dzanc Books.
I’m passionate about storytelling and publishing, and I’m seeking full-time opportunities in writing and editing to grow as a published author and editor. I enjoy collaborating with authors and editors to shape meaningful narratives and bring fresh voices to readers.
