Kelsie Lyons is a senior at Penn State University pursuing a double major in Communications Arts & Sciences and English and a minor in Classics & Ancient Mediterranean Studies. After taking a creative writing class in her sophomore year, she decided that the writing and publishing world was the one she wanted to live and breathe in. Interested in learning more about the editorial process, she began an internship working with Emily Robins Sharpe and Dr. Jonathan P. Eburne to compile a scholarly edition of Hugh Garner’s short stories. The project strives to bring Hugh Garner’s short stories back into print for a new generation of readers.
