You’ve been wanting to join a writing community, but you’ve struggled to find one that feels fully you — one that champions both the spiritual aspect of writing and also focuses on how to actually become a better writer.
You want a writing community that speaks to both the sacred and the specifics of writing and sharing your work with the world, that speaks to the mystery as well as the mechanics of improving your craft.
And writing can feel lonely. Uncertain. Full of doubts and rejection. You don’t have to walk this path alone.
One of the best things I’ve done for my writing has been intentionally joining writing communities that have held me in the mess, in the struggle, as well as in the celebrations.
Now, I want to offer the same to you.
You’re invited to our community of loving, conscious poets who truly get you, who will uplift your work and offer you the feedback, community, and accountability you crave.
All are welcome in the POET’S CIRCLE — whether you’re a complete beginner and don’t consider yourself a “poet” at all, or you’ve been a published poet for years, we would love to have you in our conscious community.

POET'S CIRCLE MEMBERS ARE SAYING...
"Melina was so inclusive to everyone in the group, as well as generous in providing feedback and attunement to each of us individually. I felt really honored to have people read my work and give feedback; it made me feel "like a real writer" and gave me the confidence to share it more. Join us to grow and deepen both your skills and your intuition!"
Nikki Moore
POET
"Melina has the talent to not only guide and inform fellow poets, but more importantly, she helps us reach deep down and tap into our creative fountain. Every single time she led a creative session, I was able to produce really good work. She is judgment free, and supportive to all of us - regardless of where we are in our development as poets. I'd say two words to someone considering joining the Poet's Circle. Do it."
Alia Einstein-Diez
POET
"This group has helped me in so many ways. Finding a community of poets. Having deep conversations with folks on a bi-weekly basis. Being introduced to the craft of poetry and learning how to revise my own poetry with an open heart. And being inspired to submit my poetry to Lit Magazines. I'm so happy a community like this actually does exist, where we're able to tap into those deeper places with like-minded people."
Brooke Boser
Hi, I’m Melina.
For years, I kept my poetry inside me because I didn’t think I was a “good writer.”
Almost a decade ago, deeply unhappy in a career that was completely wrong for me, I started writing poetry again, and I’ve been sharing it in some way online ever since. My poetry found a home on Substack, and my audience grew to 1.5k+ subscribers within a few months.
I’ve been writing all my life, but since I began to take my craft more seriously in the past few years, I’ve won poetry contests, had my poetry published in many literary magazines, and am currently working on my first manuscript.
