She serves as poetry co-editor for Phantom Drift, a Journal of New Fabulism and as a peer reviewer for Whale Road Review. Ki researches fairy tales then butchers them for her own purposes.

"We each carry lines of poetry with us. Words that others have written float back to us and stay with us, indelibly. We clutch these "life lines" like totems, repeat them as mantras, and summon them for comfort and laughter."
-Academy of American Poets
