Thank you for the writing opportunity. Published author, writing instructor and wordsmith, I'm eager to put my writing skills to work on your project.
After earning my Bachelors in English from The Ohio State University, I attended graduate school at Spalding University in Louisville, KY and completed my MFA in 2012. When I’m not at my desk, I critique/edit manuscripts and teach writing at Ohio University and Zane State College in Zanesville, Ohio.
My work has been published in various print and digital journals, including Literal Translations, Litmocracy, The Battered Suitcase, Newfound Literary Journal, Darkest Before Dawn, 94 Creations Literary Journal, and BlazeVOX 14. An excerpt from my first short story collection placed in The Blotter Magazine’s Laine Cunningham Novel [and book-length manuscript] Competition in July, 2014. My most recent pleasure is ranking 7th out of 359 entries in Sixfold's summer Competition, an all-writer voted event.
Writing samples and skill tests are available on my profile.
Let's talk about your project.
Always,
Lora Hilty, MFA, BA
