Melissa M. Miller

Hey everyone! It’s been a long while since I introduced myself here and since I’ve got a few more follows lately, it feels like a good time to do a re-introduction!

👋🏻 I’m Mel, a fantasy writer and reader on a daily quest to find magic on and off the page ✨

📍 I live in the Cotswolds (UK) with my other half and our rescue cat, Callie

✍🏻 I’m getting ready to query a folklore-inspired epic fantasy I’ve been working on since 2020

When I’m not writing (or working), you’ll find me...

📖 reading
📚 browsing bookshops
🖼️ creating art (drawing, painting and - more recently - linocut print!)
🚶🏻‍♀️ walking in the countryside or by the coast
🥂 out discovering new places to eat and drink
🥰 spending time with friends and family (often playing board games)
🤗 catching up with my writing community

What you can expect from following me here:

👉 Updates on my writing journey
👉 Writing tips and advice I’ve picked up along the way
👉 Bookish recommendations - mainly fantasy, speculative fiction and horror, though I read broadly!

🙌 So, if you’re a fellow writer, reader or fantasy fan, I’d love for you to stick around and say hello! What’s the best book you’ve read lately?
