Melanie Romero is a trilingual writer based in Orange County with overseas connections in Mexico City, Paris, and London. It was during childhood weekend trips to Randy’s dollar-a-book stall at the OC Market Place that she discovered a passion for reading and, eventually, writing. Today, she serves as Editor at Lil’ Libros, a bilingual English-Spanish children’s book publishing company in sunny Los Angeles, and has written two hardcovers, Amor de colores and J is for Janucá, under the publisher. She’s also the Arts & Culture columnist for LibroMobile, a bilingual Orange County-based arts cooperative that spotlights the surrounding community. In her free time, she can be found indulging in challah, saving the bees, and browsing the shelves of independent bookstores.
