Colleen Colkitt is in her junior year at SUNY College at
Brockport. She studies Creative
Writing, Communications, and Business Administration. In between classes and work, Colleen spends her time behind
the camera or editing footage at a computer for her school’s Television
Production club. While Ms. Colkitt
spends time with her friends, she also steals time to add to her Origami paper
crane collection and watch Netflix.
With a preference towards satirical unrealistic fiction, Colleen
takes inspiration for her work from friendships, family, and experiences with
her coworkers. One of the most
influential authors for Ms. Colkitt has been Chuck Palahniuk. Although she has tried to emulate his
gritty style of writing, Colleen continues to search for her own voice through
writing in isolation. Ms.
Colkitt’s plans for the future include writing more short fiction, as well as
the completion of her manuscript for her first novel length piece.
Colleen has poetry published in Muddry River Poetry Review,
Inclement Poetry, Bare Hands Poetry, and Poetry Bulawayo. This is Ms. Colkitt’s first fiction
publication.
