Kirsten Reneau is a writer. She graduated MFA at the University of New Orleans in creative nonfiction in the spring of 2021. There, she defended her thesis with distinction and won the Carol Gelderman Thesis Award in Nonfiction.
Kirsten is the author of “Meeting Gods in Basement Bars and Other Ways to Find Forgiveness” (Ethel Press) and “What Doesn’t Kill you Makes You Weirder” (Bullshit Lit). Her full-length collection of essays, Sensitive Creatures, has garnered praise as an “incredible accomplishment.”
Her work has been featured in The Threepenny Review, Alaska Quarterly Review, Reed Magazine, and others. Her nonfiction and poetry have been nominated for (and occasionally won) a few awards and prizes. Her work has been supported by the Juniper Writing Institute.
Her literary magazine experience includes working as one of Bayou Magazine’s creative nonfiction editors, and she is currently the Managing Operator for the Daily Drunk and editor for its side project, The Final Girl Bulletin Board. She keeps an interview column for the The Micro Podcast on Lithub. Her journalism and photo essays can be seen in Xtra Magazine, The French Quarter Journal, U.S. News and World Reports, and some more.
She also freelances doing editing and organizing for full-length poetry works, short story & essay collections. She also makes websites here and there – you can reach out to her for these services here.
She is casually interested in film photography but not very knowledgeable about it yet. She also likes traveling by train, shopping at small-town thrift stores, and records where one song fades into the next. She currently has one small dog, a shag haircut, and a budding collection of clothes from the 70s.
