Cory Quinn (pronouns he/him/his) is a writer from Carver, Minnesota, currently based in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. He is a third-year student at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, studying developmental psychology with certificates in English with a creative writing emphasis and LGBTQ+ studies.

 Cory values writing as a vital part of his life and expression. His poetry centers around themes of bodies, relationships, and love, and uses different poetic forms to tell stories of queerness and transness. When not pursuing art and writing, you can find Cory watching and reviewing movies on Letterboxd (his favorite social media), trying new recipes to cook for his friends, and shopping at antique stores for broken watches and neckties.

 Cory's overarching goal is to stay immersed and involved with the community-- whether that be the LGBTQIA+ community, the world of artists, and/ or the Midwest region as a whole. Lately, he has begun his role as Editor-In-Chief at the None of the Above art and literary publication, which he is very excited to work with more in the coming fall. By the end of 2026, Cory hopes to self-publish his first chapbook, "BODIED", and plans to begin developments for his next one starting in August while embarking on a trip to Australia.
