"You want the work to sound good regardless, but you want to make it sound especially good coming from the artist who created it (you). It complicates things when you’re also scared of reading out loud and/or in front of your peers."

Hillfire poet Hanna is scared of essays and nonfiction, but that shan't stop her! After all, aren't essays a little bit like poems? New blog post on our website ;) https://t.co/mXswGu16XD

[Hillfire Press @hillfire_press]

Not only has Hanna edited for Hillfire Anthology, she’s continuously contributed poetry that tangles the mind in the best ways. Her newest stuff appears in Vol 3 ;)

[Hillfire Press @hillfire_press]

This is Hanna! She started working for a German educational publisher in January 2022. As an editor and project manager, Hanna and her colleagues assess published books written in English on whether they would be suitable for the English curriculum in German public schools.

[Hillfire Press @hillfire_press]

She says working with English is really fun because she’s always learning something new, and sometimes annotating/checking annotations feels like solving an intricate puzzle. “Language is insane, it’s amazing. Gimme those puns. Serve me the slang.” 👩‍🍳

Zala’s work for Hillfire Anthology volumes 1 and 2 have been pivotal in getting us to where we are today. Not only has she been Executive Editor for both volumes, she’s also contributed brilliant stories, as well. Thank you Zala!!

[Hillfire Press @hillfire_press]

For our next highlight, we’re celebrating Zala!
Currently she’s director and chief editor of the Selkie Publications, a nonprofit that champions and supports traditionally underrepresented writers through publication, editorial services, and various workshops.
