About the editor
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.
