ZYZZYVA

As an intern at ZYZZYVA from January-May 2016, my work was separated into three categories:

Writing

I wrote three book reviews and conducted one author interview for the journal’s blog, linked below:

Queen of the Liminal : ‘Fine, Fine, Fine, Fine, Fine’ by Diane Williams

When the Only Escape is Through Fantasy: ‘The Seven Madmen’ by Roberto Arlt

Aftermath of Greek Crisis: ‘Something Will Happen, You’ll See’ by Christos Ikonomou

Realism’s Inability to Portray Reality: A Q&A with ‘Man & Wife’ Author Katie Chase

Reading

Along with my fellow interns, I read through ZYZZYVA’s submissions and helped the editors decide on texts to include in the journal.

Proofreading

Lastly, I proofread the latest issue of the journal when it was set to be published.
