My name's Melissa, but I usually go by Mel. I was born in January of '75. I grew up in Montana, and now live in Massachusetts. I'm in a wonderful relationship with a man named Erich, and am owned by two cats who always keep me on my toes. I'm Pagan by faith-- eclectic with some Wiccan tendencies, but nothing specific. I often talk about spiritual things in my journal, and welcome those who genuinely want to discuss what inspires them religiously (translation= not "witnessing" or conversions... just sharings of what makes life joyous and peaceful through faith). I'm an avid writer-- in my journal, as a professional freelancer, and as a hopeful future novelist. I enjoy writing to penpals worldwide, reading, listening to music, exploring little towns here in New England, playing RPG's such as Dungeons & Dragons (and other d20 products), Renaissance Faires, anime, cross-stitching, and whatever else comes to mind.<p>

My favorite music: |
| U2 |
| comments: I began listening to U2 when Joshua Tree first came out. I love their 80's stuff. Newer stuff is still growing on me. :) |
| Billy Joel |
| comments: A must have for long road trips. Or while sipping an ice tea on a cool afternoon. Put on "New York State of Mind" and try it. Honest. |
| Enigma |
| comments: I use their music a lot when I either meditate or do ritual. Since each album begins and ends with the same overtone notes, it's great to just put them back to back in the CD changer |
| Lorenna McKennitt |
| comments: The most incredible combination of instruments and styles from all over the world. Beautiful stuff. |
| Marc Cohn |
| comments: Something about his music just is simple and honest. Lots of memories of childhood and my teenage years come back to me when I listen to his first album (self-titled). |
My favorite movies: |
My favorite authors: |
| Rosemary Edghill |
| comments: I picked up the second of her Bast trilogy on a whim, and was immediately hooked. Pagan mystery novels. Gotta love 'em! |
| Nora Roberts |
| comments: Guilty smut treasures. I normally hate romance novels. Hers interest me, though. :) |
| R. A. Salvatore |
| comments: Because I'm a geek. It's a necessity, despite my boyfriend's somewhat jealous joking that he's a "hack." |
| Shakespeare |
| comments: No one writes poetry better than the Bard. It's tough to translate sometimes, but his writing is pure beauty. |
| Stephen King |
| comments: Although I can't read everything he's written, I respect him tremendously as an author. Like me, he seems to need to write. Only he's much more prolific than I am. |
