Megan Denese Mealor
Bewildering Stories biography
|
Megan Denese Mealor echoes and erases in her native land of Jacksonville, Florida. A survivor of bipolar disorder, she often incorporates kaleidoscopic emotions into her writing.
Her work has been featured in literary journals worldwide, most recently in Spillwords, Eunoia Review, and The Stray Branch. Nominated twice for the Pushcart Prize, Megan has authored three full-length poetry collections: Bipolar Lexicon (Unsolicited Press, 2018); Blatherskite (Clare Songbirds Publishing House, 2019); and A Mourning Dove’s Wishbone (still in the works).
Megan is currently studying English at the University of North Florida while caring for her autistic son and cultivating her writing career. She enjoys serving as a volunteer reader for Autumn House Press, The Malahat Review, Short Edition, Orca: A Literary Journal, Ember Chasm Review, and Orion’s Belt.
Megan and her husband Tony, son Jesse, and three mollycoddled cats, Trigger, Lulu, and Hobbes, occupy a cavernous, yet cozy townhouse ornamented with vintage ads for Victorian inventions.
