Bio
Megan Denese Mealor echoes and erases in her native land of Jacksonville, Florida. A survivor of bipolar disorder, Megan likes to incorporate her kaleidoscopic emotions into her writing. Her poetry and short stories have been featured in literary journals worldwide, most recently in Spillwords, Ginosko Literary Journal, The Stray Branch, and Eunoia Review. Nominated twice for the Pushcart Prize, Megan has authored three full-length poetry collections: Bipolar Lexicon (Unsolicited Press, 2018), Blatherskite (Clare Songbirds, 2019), and A Mourning Dove’s Wishbone (still in the works). Currently, Megan is studying English at the University of North Florida while caring for her autistic son. She, her husband Tony, son Jesse, and three mollycoddled cats Trigger, Lulu, and Hobbes occupy a cavernous, yet cozy townhouse ornamented with ads for Victorian inventions.
