About me
I am a copywriter, editor and creative writer with a background in the arts. I currently manage all social media for a skincare company named Emmanuelle Skincare and Wellness. In the past, I've worked at one of the largest regional theatre companies in the United States reading and evaluating manuscripts from all over the country. I wrote copy and articles for their websites and newsletters as well. I've also written and produced my own play. I have a sharp eye for editing, a deep understanding of demographic, and I love to work with people. I hope you are one of them! ... Read more

    Melina did an excellent job giving my full length screenplay a beta read. She exceeded my expectatons with her understanding of the story and characters, as well as with pointing out clearly where improvements could be made. I am glad I found her!

    Melina B. gave my work a thorough vetting. Her review was encouraging as well as specific in the suggestions she offered that would improve my one act play. I am glad I found her and recommend her without reservations.
