Welcome

I’m Meg Cotner and I write, edit, and produce pieces about the arts, food and culture, with a particular fondness for telling people’s stories through interviews and collaborative projects.

I am the author of “Food Lovers’ Guide to Queens” (Globe Pequot Press, 2012), editor in chief at Bridgetown Bites, and have worked in various aspects of publishing for 15 years.

My work has been published in Thrillist, Dotdash (About.com), Paste Magazine, Specialty Food Magazine, the New York Daily News, Brownstoner, Eater, The Hills & Heights of Portland magazine, and Harpsichord & Fortepiano Magazine.

I copy edit and proofread for small businesses and large marketing agencies. I co-founded We Heart Astoria, a lifestyle website about Astoria, Queens. I also work as a communications professional for education and nonprofits.

I am currently based in beautiful Portland, Oregon.
