BIOGRAPHY
Catherine Mellen is an American poet, author and blogger.  Born in 1969 Lowell Massachusetts.  She wrote her first poem at age fourteen and quickly adapted her love for words.  Shamed by the childhood she lived, she became a cook and caterer for nearly three decades.  An auto accident at age forty-five, left her disabled and a victim to horrifying repressed memories.  In 2018 she started a blog where she shattered her silence on childhood trauma, family secrets and the monstrous predator her birth mother harbored.
