Toth has received residencies from the Ragdale Foundation, the Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts, and the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts (where she was awarded the Alison Lurie Memorial Fellowship for Female-Identifying Fiction Writers) to work on Ashworks Estates, a Gothic campus novel. Toth enjoys bird-watching, playing complex board games, and going on food adventures with her partner.
