I’m Gwenyth Swain, author, editor, bookstore clerk, and former library aide 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 the library aide at Twin Cities Academy, a charter middle school and high school in St. Paul. Now, I’m a clerk at the great independent bookstore Wellesley Books in Wellesley, MA. Last, but not least, I am a library school drop-out who loves libraries.
