Bucket Siler is a writer, editor, and the founder of Santa Fe Zine Fest. Her newest zine Bear Escapes is forthcoming in 2020.

She holds an MFA in Creative Writing from the Rainier Writing Workshop, and has been a Vermont Studio Center fellow and the recipient of a Fulcrum Fund Award. In addition to her eight self-published zines, her work has appeared in Atticus Review, Bracken, The Nervous Breakdown, and Storm Cellar, where she won second prize in the 2017 Force Majeure Flash Contest.

When she's not writing or sleeping, she likes to wander around her neighborhood, drink tea, play chase-the-string with her fluffy tuxedo cat, and construct needlessly long sentences to get her point across. Originally from the Pacific Northwest, she has lived in New Mexico since 2006.
