I’m Melodie (Mel) Lake, a writer and editor in Denver, CO.

Originally from Arizona, most of my career has been working remotely as a technical writer in industries such as insurance and public health.

I also write short stories, novels, and creative nonfiction. I’ve written comic book reviews for Multiversity.com and was a volunteer reader for the literary magazine Capsule Stories.
