Read it Forward

Read it Forward was an online community and literary lifestyle magazine produced by Penguin Random House. As a contributing writer from 2016-2020, I wrote and published essays, articles, and book reviews. In 2021, PRH shuttered the magazine and sunsetted the website.

So you've started a Silent Book Club. Now what?


Libro.fm

As an avid reader and supporter of independent bookstores, I've worked with Libro.fm, an audiobook distributor and social purpose corporation, to increase access to books in all formats. Silent Book Club has partnered with Libro.fm on fundraising initiatives to raise money for local bookstores, and I have contributed articles (and listicles) to their blog.
