Welcome to
Melissa Fulks Writing
Hello, I’m Melissa Fulks (A.K.A – MF Writing)
I consider myself a forever student, constantly embarking on a journey to learn something new. My journey started at Arizona State University, where I took several courses in leadership, communication, and English.
I took my education to the next step, pursuing my Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing at the University of Denver, where I learned how to use my creativity to create beautiful works of literature.
In 2023, I returned to school to pursue a second master’s degree. This time a Master of English in Professional Writing. In my short time here I have already learned about SEO optimization, accessibility, and how to write various technical documentation.
My Career
WRITER
CREATIVE | TECHNICAL
My experience with both creative and technical writing allows me to explore many writing mediums through two different lenses.
EDITOR
BLOG | CREATIVE | CONTENT
I can edit both creative and technical pieces. My expertise is in editing blog articles and ensuring they are SEO-optimized.
CAREGIVER
Habilitation | Attendant Care
I have been a professional caregiver since 2009, offering Habilitation, Attendant Care, and Respite services.
Not accepting new clients.
RESEARCHER LEAD
Animalcrossingcommunity.com
I have been a Researcher Lead for Animal Crossing Community since 2020. In this position, I lead a team of up to 10 Researchers. We are responsible for delivering a quarterly newsletter, creating and maintaining over 179 game guides, and running on-site events.
Additionally, I manage the company’s Instagram account and content.
VICE PRESIDENT OF COMMUNICATIONS
Ferry Godmother Productions
I started my career with Ferry Godmother Productions in March of 2023. I started as a blog writer and was promoted three weeks later to Project Manager of the Content Creation and Scriptwriter teams.
In my Project Manager position, I maintained two teams of 3-4 members and ensured they produced high-quality writing. I taught and ensured that the Content Creation team created SEO-optimized pieces with proper keyword usage.
In March 2024, I was promoted to Vice President of Communications for the company. Besides my previous responsibilities, I now oversee all internal and external company documents and attend meetings with potential contracts.
TECHNICAL WRITING
I am most versed in writing SEO-optimized articles, games, and instructional guides. I am detail-oriented and review each line of a piece before sending it to an editor or sending it back to a writer after editing it myself.
CREATIVE WRITING
I am an aspiring novelist and currently have two books in the works. I am mainly a romance writer, but I include fantasy elements in all my stories.
Blog – The Writer’s Life
As a writer, I know how difficult it is to say you want to be a writer and follow through. My blog will discuss a variety of writing topics and give tips on overcoming setbacks.
MF Writing Portfolio
In my portfolio, you will find both creative and technical projects that I have done. This will vary from personal creative work to school assignments, work assignments, and more.
