Hi, there.
I’m Ceillie. I am a writer, reader, and reviewer. My essays, reviews, interviews, and more have been published by Electric Literature, The Chicago Review of Books, The Women’s Review of Books, Bustle, Oh Reader!, the Ploughshares blog, and other outlets. You can read my work here.
I live in New Hampshire with my husband, daughter, and our two dogs. I currently serve on the board of trustees for my local library. Previously, I have volunteered as a tutor and publishing corps member with 826 Boston. I have also served as reader for Salamander and Panyrus literary magazines, Salamander’s annual fiction contest, and Scholastic’s Annual Writing Contest for teens.

SELECT Books Coverage
Miranda Popkey’s Topics of Conversation
In a pivotal chapter of Miranda Popkey’s debut novel Topics of Conversation, the unnamed narrator joins a group of women—some coworkers, all new mothers, all single—for an evening.
Myths and Mundanity in Jill Bialosky’s The Deceptions
The real, physical world’s sharp interruptions of the narrator’s meandering thoughts reveal her preference for the order of her imagination, the comfort of assigned meaning in her myths.

Content Marketing & Editing
In addition to my own creative writing, I take on select marketing consulting projects. I create content, develop marketing strategies, and edit articles, websites, and more copy-based collateral for businesses including martech brands, SaaS startups, venture capital firms, and more.
