Wisdom House Books
Wisdom House Books is seeking a summer intern who will assist the editorial and PR/marketing team on a newly formed poetry and art project, Nocturnus, at our independent press with the poetry and art submissions and promotional efforts of the division.
This project will allow you to gain hands-on experience with editing and reviewing poetry and art submissions and will enable you to showcase creative and marketing skills in the literary and independent book publishing industry.

● Strengthening the social media presence of Nocturnus on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.
● Evaluating poetry and art submissions under the close guidance of the editorial and design team.
● General research into poetry presses.
