Britt Gettys
Author · 8 books

Britt is one of those strange people caught between two cities. Half the year she calls Seattle her home, the other half of the time she's running around the streets of Brooklyn. Currently a student at Pratt Institute, Britt is pursuing a BFA in Creative Writing. Her current projects include a Young Adult, YA Novel, and a blog dedicated to reviewing books with tumblr reaction GIFs. Aside school work she works as the Editor of Pratt Sucess, and as an Editorial Intern for Nightmare and Lightspeed Magazines. Britt also does way too much student, volunteer work. When not writing, Britt can be found drawing strange looking stick-figures. Someday she hopes these stick figures will become a comic book.
