Maggie Garnett is a lifelong writer, devoted cat mom, and Lexington native. A graduate of Transylvania University, she holds a degree in English with minors in creative writing and education. She also served as Editor-in-Chief of the Transylvanian Literary Magazine from 2013-2017. Currently, Maggie balances freelance ghostwriting work with her own literary pursuits; she hopes to one day publish YA and adult novels in a variety of genres, and maybe release a poetry collection or two. As a former bookseller, an alumna of the Kentucky Center’s Governor’s School for the Arts, and a regular fixture at the former Holler Poet Series, Maggie takes pride in her involvement in the local literary scene, and is thrilled to serve the community as part of the Carnegie Center staff.
