Addison Rizer, Interview Editor for Issues 20 and 21

We’re excited to share Addison Rizer, a past Interview Editor, has just joined Publishers Weekly as a nonfiction reviewer. Addison’s academic and professional accomplishments have bloomed since her time at Superstition Review. She graduated from NAU with an MA in Professional Writing in 2022.

She began working as a contributor for Book Riot in December of 2020. Her Book Riot article “I Wrote a Poem After Every Book I Read in 2020” was featured in an episode of CBC’s As It Happens with Nil Köksal and Chris Howden posted on February 21, 2021. She is a guest in the episode about 58 minutes in, or you can read the transcript.

Before graduating from ASU and starting her MA at NAU, Addison was part of ASU’s Psyche Inspired program from 2018 to 2019, a program that gathers undergraduates from all disciplines as interns creating content for NASA’s Psyche mission.
