What writers are saying about Poetry Power: “After reading Poetry Power, I feel confident that yes! I could be a poet. Melanie takes her readers by the hand and walks them through the whole process of writing, publishing, editing and loving poetry. Little personal vignettes scattered throughout Poetry Power made me feel like Melanie was a friend. It was as if we were in a writing group together and she was sharing her writing secrets. Each chapter ends with a Try this Prompt that are easy and exciting to try.” —Tricia L. McDonald, Writer and CEO Splattered Ink Press

What writers are saying about In a Flash: “Written in lively prose, and full of terrific prompts and great examples of the form, this book captures all the potential of flash prose pieces and crystallizes it expertly for the reader, whether novice or advanced.” Fred G. Leebron, director of writing programs in Charlotte, Roanoke, Gettysburg and Latin America, and Pushcart Prize and O.Henry Award recipient

Announcing: Particle! First Poem Share: "Spun out: We Can't Always See around Corners"

Super excited to announce one of the literary/artistic projects I've been working on since winter.

I'm writing a book of illustrated poetry, entitled Particle, and I'll be sharing exclusive excerpts of poems from time to time.

Thrilled to get to collaborate with talented visual artist/illustrator/poet extraordinaire @annabelle_fern , who is a dream to work with and brought all of the illustrations to glorious life; can't wait to see her next visual magic!

For commissions and to check out more of her amazing artistry: @annabelle_fern .
