Meet the Writer

Melissa Moralez is a feminist writer from Texas living in Guadalajara, Jalisco. She is best known for her Conversations with Assholes series where she produces raw, unedited, popcorn fiction and poetry for the daring soul. Her writing wreaks havoc in its crude, memoir-like reflections of what it means to exist as a modern American woman.

Conversations with Assholes was created as a big “fuck you” to all the pressure out there surrounding writers and the false idea that adhering to strict structure and rules are necessary to publish work. Each piece is written and posted for consumption in a matter of hours with little to no editing.

There are no boundaries to her processes, style, and works, as she enjoys writing in all forms. Her essay “My Famous Abortion,” was recently published in King Shot Press’s Nasty Vol. 2. She is currently working on her first fiction novel, along with fresh additions for her Conversations with Assholes series.
