Melissa A. Joy

Melissa A. Joy is a fantasy author with Autism & ADHD who challenges the conventional expectations of fantasy and takes them to a whole new level. It is no secret that she/they believe(s) in the existence of all things fantastical, and that anything is possible.

She/they began building the world of Aeldynn and started writing seriously aged approximately 13, and has since developed it into something truly magical worth sharing. From the glorious winged Drahknyr and wise and fearsome dragons to pirates of the high seas and a world rich with history and lore, her/their imagination could be said to be limitless.

When not locked in a reverie about what’s going on in the world of Aeldynn, she/they are probably out sailing the high seas on a tall ship, training at Kung Fu, gaming, or perhaps dressed up in costume at an anime convention.
