Melanie Gaughran is a university student in the city of subdued excitement, Bellingham, Washington. Particularly concerned with her internal workings and misworkings, she finds that putting them to paper can help to bring either a bit of humor to the situation, or at least some clarity. When she isn’t writing, she can be found thinking about writing while trapped under a sleeping cat, or touring the city for antiques.
