Abby Arbeiter

Future Author

United States

I have a Bachelor of Arts in Creative Writing with minors in Communications and English Literature. I'm currently working on final revisions of my manuscript, Sonder & Reverie. My ambition is to get it published. I'm broadening my knowledge involving communications, marketing and enhancing my personal brand while I network, enter the publishing industry and grow in my professional career.

I love reading fantasy, sci-fi and contemporary genres anytime I can. I took part in a publishing internship with Dzanc Books, which is a nonprofit organization to advance great writing and impact communities nationally with efforts to promote literary readership and advocacy of creating writing workshops and readings offered across the country.

I'm currently published in Wichita State's Literary Magazine Mikrokomos, and have previously been the Undergraduate Fiction Editor for their team! I hope to expand my knowledge of the writing field with close connections and submitting my work as much as I can!
