Hey, I'm Meghan Crumley. You may know me as Meghan Pleticha (pronounced "Pleh-TEEK-ah").

 

I write television, commercial treatments, and marketing copy for money.

 

I write plays, short stories, and personal essays for less money.

​

My perfect evening is a sunset walk to a local comedy theater, where a man does a sketch about fire ants and rips off all his clothes and runs naked through the audience, screaming.
