Mel's Story
Life
I hate writing bios! I never know what to say. I have a wide variety of interests. I am a mother, grandmother, aviculturist (which is much like being a mother), teacher (again, much like being a mother), student  I am currently working on an MFA in Creative Non-Fiction. I try to write something creative everyday. I have BAs in History and English and MAs in Literature and Writing & Rhetoric (commonly referred to as Composition Studies). I have one published book of poetry.
I am passionate about my parrots, GOOD literature and music (anything but rap and opera), politics, things Irish, movies, my partner, and my kids  not necessarily in that order on any given day.
I play 3 computer games; The Sims (with every expansion pack), The Sims 2 and Civilization -- since I purchased Civ I oh so many ...Expand for more
years ago, and played it off of a floppy disk! Well, really I play The Sims2... I do still own the others though!
I watch 4 TV shows: Law and Order (all of them), The Highlander (there can be only one!), Monarch of the Glen and Rebel Hearts. Ok, I should rephrase, I LIKE these shows, I don't actually get to watch them very often. I can't remember the last time my television was actually on.
I live on a "pleasure" farm in rural Virginia with a horse, goats, cats, a dog, chickens, a guinea hen, fourteen parrots my partner and my youngest child.
For those interested I am a Libra, with Aquarius rising, and an Aries Moon -- The aspects in my chart form a star of david (two grand trines) -- cool huh?
