Melissa: The Strong Southerner
A New Contributor to BohoMamma: Melissa is a strong one. She writes that she is a “woman who is still a girl in so many ways.” Hardly. If life makes one a woman, then Melissa is nearing old age.
Melissa grew up in a Southern town, much like me.
She moved around a bit, much like me.
She found love, she lost love, much like all of us.
She is a survivor of Stage 3C Ovarian Cancer.
That battle left her rearranging her plans for life.
She was a “domestic goddess” and a goddess nurse in her former life. Now, she is a woman who is looking and thinking and visualizing new dreams. We like that – it’s a very BohoMamma way of being. She likes fashion. She loves animals. She asked what she could write about as a contributor to BohoMamma. We suggested she take a page from her life. And so she has.
Melissa will be a contributor to BohoMamma’s Feature Section, The Female Voice, a section of our site where we highlight women writers and bloggers. The topics can be on anything…the format is fiction or nonfiction poetry or rhyme. It’s BohoMamma’s effort at creating a space for women who love to write and women who love to read.
