“Working with Lucinda Literary these past months has been wonderful. I really felt part of the team and that the work I was doing, even as an intern, was important to the company. I was given the freedom to take on projects and feel out ideas on my own and grow into a bigger role. It truly is a great opportunity to work with Lucinda.” –Kathryn, Social Media Coordinator, 2011-2012
