Mackenzie Manley is a freelance journalist based in Greater Cincinnati. She currently works as Campbell County Public Library’s public relations coordinator, which means most of her days are spent thinking about books and community (and making silly social media posts). She’s written a bit of everything, including features, long-form articles, essays and more. She talks way too much about her cat, is always up for long walks—especially at public parks—and can often be found watching movies, reading, visiting coffee shops, thrifting and adding to her plant collection.
