EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT! We are so pleased to welcome Tanisha Khan to the untethered team as our new Fiction Editor!

Tanisha Khan was born in Bangladesh, raised in Toronto and across western Canada. She likes to think she has many homes, her most recent one being Regina, SK. Her writing often explores the elegiac and fractured workings of memory. When it comes to fiction, Tanisha looks for stories that place the shuffle of everyday life under a microscope. She searches for unexpected sentences, and for voices that haunt her day long after she’s finished reading. Tanisha has an MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Oregon.

Are you interested in joining the untethered team? We are getting too big for our tiny team! Click here for more information. We are always looking for casual first readers, copy editors and proofreaders. We need your help!
