Comment Policy
Comments containing hate speech, personal attacks, and insults about other readers’ looks, intelligence, fandom of choice, etc., will be deleted.
Although we value discussion and exchange of ideas, we will delete comments that play devil’s advocate at the expense of marginalized communities, or derail comment sections by arguing ideas that aren’t up for debate. Engaging in any of the above behaviors may get you banned. We also reserve the right to delete comments and ban users for miscellaneous poor conduct that falls outside those specific delete-able offenses. The Internet is people; please treat everyone you meet there as such.
Our Team
Kaytie Norman, Editor
Kaytie joined Open Road Integrated Media in 2019 after spending three years writing and editing books for Media Lab Books. She already loved telling people which books are worth reading, so this job was a perfect match. Her hobbies include cooking, honing her Liz Lemon impression and encouraging people to read books like The Group by Mary McCarthy, The City and the Pillar by Gore Vidal, and Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
MacKenzie Stuart, Associate Editor
MacKenzie got her bachelor’s degree from Fordham University, where she worked on a campus political journal. She’s been writing and editing ever since. When she’s not working her way through an ever-growing list of psychological thrillers, she spends her free time binging true crime podcasts, haphazardly learning to cook, and running along the Hudson River.
