Hi!

I am a 54 year old woman who finally realized my dream of becoming a published author, “Officially published”, I should say. I have written more than 20 children’s books which I literally self-published. These are true handmade one-of-a-kind books I have given as gifts for years.

I have also written curriculum, poetry and numerous short stories.

I learned to love words as a child when life’s circumstances led to a lot of alone time. I am grateful now for what, then, seemed like a hardship.

I did not write anything from age 20 through age 27, maybe I can share why at some point.

When I did pick my pen back up I promised the Lord that with His help I would seek to honor Him in all my words. I’m still doing my best, deleting some to make changes, and completely trashing some, He has proven faithful.

He is my reason.

I hope all who read my work will catch Him in some way.

Melissa (Mellie, my new Grandmother name)
