Bio:
Melissa grew up in the Caribbean, namely Trinidad. She was educated in New York, and much later taught English in Japan. As a child she played with words and tinkered with the internal circuitry of a radio, in an attempt to become a Miss Fixit. Right now though, she is honing her skills, by learning more about craft so that eventually she will become a better novelist and poet.
I came to visit because I love your blog name!
Thanks you, I think your name’s pretty nifty as well!
Thanks for dropping by “Honey!”
You’re welcome, n likewise thanks for doing the same!
Hi, Melissa! I hope you’ll take part in the 777 Writing Challenge! No obligation to, of course.:) But please take a peek if you might want to join in! https://eyedancers.wordpress.com/2015/03/13/the-777-writing-challenge-or-a-peek-into-an-untitled-sequel/
Hey Mike I’m grateful for the nudge on the novel, however, at the moment I am taking a few weeks away…the more I discuss or show the less I find myself doing…sorry, but maybe next time! Great post, though.
Haha, the photos with your prompts are great, and I promise that I’ll definitely participate if I can gather up the time and the creative energy.
But thank you for taking the time to read my blog! It means a lot to know that a novelist/poet thought my work and the message I tried to send was worth her time. I wish you all the best!
Any time Daniel, it’s also good of you to stop by. You’ve got a quirky site and I enjoyed your post. Keep up the great work, fellow writer.

Hi I spent some time visiting a relative in the Caribbean as a teenager, and later as a holiday maker so was interested to see that you grew up in Trinidad.
Hi Marjma, I’m delighted that you’ve been here twice and I hope you enjoyed the experience. Sometimes I think it’s like a wild ride when you grow up surrounded by different cultures and festivals. And at other times it is easy to find similarities when you go to different places like Southern India and find that the life you left is similar to another one that you are now only visiting. So congrats on the novel and hopefully, see you again!
Hi. I hope you don’t mind but I’ve nominated you to take part in a Writing challenge here’s the link if you’d like to have a go: https://kyrosmagica.wordpress.com/2015/05/24/free-style-writing-challenge-the-hurt-behind-the-smile/
I too k the challenge, thanks for thinking of me. I hope you liked the end result. Have a fantastic week!
Thanks for joining in. Will check out your post. 🙂
Hi it’s great but there was a new topic at the end of the post! Think you missed it, I’ve made it clearer for other participants, no worries it doesn’t really matter. Thanks for joining in 🙂
thanks Marjorie, corrections made. I think that first piece grabbed hold of me quickly…and my mind was lost to other things.
Hi Melissa. I’m featuring you in Episode 18 of “The Guitar Mancer.” Let me know if there is anything special you would like me to share (beyond your lovely blog). Mega hugs!
