Hailey Stephens is an avid reader, writer, and copyeditor with a bachelor's degree in English-Writing from Illinois Wesleyan University, as well as a master's in Writing and Publishing from DePaul University.
She has gained great work experience through different internships over the years. From learning about unscripted television as a Development/Casting intern at Crybaby Media, furthering her marketing and copyediting skills as an intern at Owl Moon Press, or becoming a part of the agenting world at ArtHouse Literary Agency, Hailey puts everything she has into her work and education and hopes to continue putting that energy into the literary world for years to come. She is especially interested in uplifting diverse artists from rural communities that may be overlooked by such a metropolis-based industry.
While Hailey's reading tastes include almost everything (she currently favors romance, literary fiction, and creative memoirs), her writing is focused on both creative nonfiction and psychological/supernatural horror.
When not reading or writing, Hailey enjoys exploring her many hobbies. She's a baker, hiker, puzzler, gamer (board games, card games, D&D, video games-she's open to it all!), cross-stitcher, and so much more.
