editing

​​Plath Profiles
Managing editor, volumes 7-9
Co-edited the only academic journal dedicated to the work of poet and novelist Sylvia Plath. In volume 7 I redesigned the look of the journal in order for each article to be self-contained with all citation data when downloaded. In volume 8 I established a blind peer-review process. The journal is available for free online via ScholarWorks.
