Melissa’s love of stories and conversations about stories has led her to her role as producer and manager of audio interviews for the Audible Editors. When it comes to spoken-word content, she loves listening to any combination of romance, young adult, and fantasy fiction, especially when they have strong escapist elements like a beautiful world to live in or a loveable cast of characters to be friends with. She lives in Colorado and spends her non-listening hours skiing, climbing, hiking, and horseback riding. You can subscribe to her young adult newsletter here.
