Ellise Huston

Ellise Huston

Publicity Assistant and resident book enthusiast, Ellise Huston loves to read, but even more than that, she loves talking about what she’s reading. She studied English, Creative Writing, and Professional Editing at UC Santa Barbara before making her way to Los Angeles, and she brings an infectious enthusiasm for stories, publishing, and connecting readers with books they’ll love.

She’s passionate about the arts, drawing inspiration from everyone from Van Gogh and Monet to Michelangelo, da Vinci, and J. M. W. Turner. And when she’s not reading, writing, or helping promote great books, you’ll likely find her listening to music, playing guitar, singing, or starring in an imaginary music video that only she can see.

Eva Kracht

Eva Kracht

Publicity Assistant Eva Kracht is always eager to dive down a research rabbit hole in search of the perfect media contact, story angle, or opportunity for our authors.

A recent graduate of the University of Southern California, Eva studied Creative Writing and Podcasting and is currently pursuing her Master’s degree in Literary Editing and Publishing at USC. Originally from rural Minnesota, she enjoys lake days, line dancing, homemade hotdish, and getting lost in a great book.

When she’s not reading poetry or fantasy novels, Eva is writing her own nonfiction essays and working toward her dream of publishing a memoir one day.
