Spiro & Associates hires accomplished author Melland

Fort Myers, FL. —Sarah Melland was writing a screenplay as a third-grader, a children’s book as a fifth-grader and winning numerous English scholarships while in high school.  She is an accomplished author, publishing 10 books. Now, she takes those writing talents and accomplishments to Spiro & Associates as a writer and social media expert.

A native of Wisconsin, Melland’s journey to Spiro & Associates included stops in Milwaukee to study film production, the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, and then to Los Angeles and Hollywood, where she wrote TV and movie scripts.

While in California, she also worked at a tanning salon and wrote her first self-published book called The Breakup Band Aid – 12 steps in getting over a relationship break-up. What followed were many other books, including A Singles Girls Guide to IVF, A Single Girl’s Guide…: to Hilarious Facts You Never Knew About Sex, A Single Girl’s Ultimate Bucket List and A Single Girl’s Guide to the Movies. She continued her self-help repertoire with a book called Practicing Love: A Message of Love, Hope, and Renewal, focusing on turning a negative experience into a positive outcome using universal laws.

“I feel like I have accomplished a lot,” Melland said. “I have crossed plenty off my bucket list.”

She returned to school and finished her bachelor’s degree in communications, graduating summa cum laude from Arizona State University in 2021.

Then, came another breakthrough in her writing. Melland wrote Jane Austen, Unabridged: The Complete Unpublished Works and Private Letters of Jane Austen. The e-book version reached No. 1 on Amazon’s new releases list.

She also started a consulting company, helping aspiring authors get their books published, branded and ready to sell.

Now, Spiro & Associates is the beneficiary of this dynamic writer.

“She brings so much writing and social media expertise to our team of mavericks,” founder and Chief Creative Officer Christopher Spiro said. “We are happy to have her talents.”
