I’m Gwenyth Swain, author, editor, instructor, middle school library aide, and former bookstore clerk and soda jerk. 


Before I began freelancing as a writer and editor, I was a senior editor at Carolrhoda Books, in Minneapolis, MN. I’ve also been a soda jerk (at the Hobnob Corner Restaurant in Nashville, IN), a costumed tour guide and interpreter (at Historic Fort Snelling in St. Paul, MN), and a clerk in an independent bookstore, the Hungry Mind of St. Paul. Currently, I’m the part-time library aide at Twin Cities Academy, a charter middle school and high school in St. Paul. And last, but not least, I am a library school drop-out who loves libraries.
