About
about melissa
Melissa Keil is a writer and children’s book editor born and raised in Melbourne, Australia.
She is the author of three award-winning YA novels, an illustrated junior fiction series, and a bunch of short stories, most of which have some sort of kissing in them.
Her books have been translated into many languages and are published around the world.
When she’s not writing, you can find her hanging with her dog (or any dog in the vicinity), consuming copious amounts of tea, and dreaming about escaping to a fireplace-and-book-filled cottage in the snow.
