Growing up on the Southeast Side, she attended schools such as: Livingston Elementary, Barrett Middle, and Briggs High Schools. She also lived in New Jersey for approximately five years, where she co-founded an annual Children’s Book Festival in Camden, New Jersey and participated in local events. Melica developed a fondness of writing and creating things at an early age. Writing was a creative expressive technique that she used to talk about various subject matters, such as relationships, domestic violence, friendships, and more. These subjects were mainly expressed in the form poetry.After graduating from college, Melica sought to be a published author. Although she did not become a published author right after her undergraduate work at Otterbein University, the drive and determination within her stayed the same. She has performed in front of audiences at The National Black Book Festival, Inspired Word NYC, The Ohio State University, Newark Public Library (New Jersey), Laughin & Loungin, Writing Wrongs Poetry open mic events, and other places around the country. Her hard work finally paid off in August of 2010 when she released her first book titled, Dead Wrong. She has written 19 books with 4 Children’s Books in development and 1 Kindle Vella work also in development.Melica has a Master’s Degree in Health Administration with a certificate in Human Resources. She has worked with individuals with Developmental Disabilities, Mental Health Diagnosis, At-risk youth, children, and various populations for about 15 years.Melica loves living outside the box and creating new and exciting things. She believes that anything is possible with passion and determination.Inspiration comes in all shapes, sizes, and walks of life. A dream can inspire you to do what is necessary to get where you are going. It is up to you to extract the needed information from the dream and make things happen. Only YOU know the necessary steps you need to take. At times, it may seem as though others possess the answers that you need, but you must realize that their answer may only work for them. My challenge for you is to dig deep inside yourself to keep the Courage, Strength, Dedication, Passion, Action, and Inspiration alive and pushing toward making a dream come true.Previous EventsYonkers Special Needs Fair– Yonkers, NYChildren’s Book Festival– Camden, New JerseyIndependent Authors Book Expo– Roselle, New Jersey2nd Annual ‘Read to Achieve’ Book Festival– Trenton, New JerseyChildren’s Book Festival– Camden, New JerseyCollingswood Book Festival– Collingswood, New JerseyIndependent Authors Book Expo- Roselle, New JerseyPoetry, Pastries, and Punch– Roselle, New JerseyChildren’s Book Fun Shop– Camden, New JerseyTwitter Party (Starts at 7 PM)– Online- TwitterTBAP’s Easter Fiesta– Online- Facebook#ChooseCamden Citywide School Fair!– BB&T Pavilion (Camden, New Jersey)view less
