When they’re not editing, Eugénie enjoys reading all things weird and queer, going to book events, and birdwatching! 🐦
A purple background with an illustration with dark purple birds. In the middle is an image of a book called Enjoy Your Stay at the Shamrock Motel by Andrew Kaufman. In the top corner of the book is a purple circle that reads: "Staff pick" in white text. At the bottom of the image is a dark purple banner that reads: "augur" in white text.

Eugénie has not only worked on Augur Issue 7.3 and @talesfeathers.bsky.social Volume 3, they’ve also been a First Reader for three years now! 📚
A dark purple background with a white square boarder enclosing a bio that reads: “Eugénie Szwalek (they/them) is a writer of weird speculative fiction and dreamlike non-fiction, but above all else, an enthusiast of beautiful sentences. A graduate of Sheridan’s Creative Writing & Publishing program, they are a first reader and copy editor with Augur by night and an Editorial Assistant at Harlequin by day. A lover of obscure bird facts and library audiobooks, they currently live and work in Toronto/tkronto (but dream of escaping into the wild some day).” in white text.

Outside of Augur, they enjoy tending to their balcony garden, hiking, and have spent over 400 hours playing Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom! 🎮

Nara has not only worked on Augur Issue 8.1 BUT also on our upcoming Issue 8.2 (keep an eye out! 👀). But that's not all, they're also an Editor at Room Magazine!
A dark purple background with a white square boarder enclosing a bio that reads: "Nara Monteiro is a Brazilian-Canadian editor, writer, and nerd based in Tkaronto. They are a managing editor at Augur magazine and an editor at Room magazine. Nara has a Master of Publishing from Simon Fraser University, where they wrote their thesis on the impact and survival of feminist literary magazines in Canada while serving as Room’s publisher. By day they edit cookbooks and gardening guides, and after hours you can find them in the nearest patch of woods with their nose in a book." in white text.
