Melissa Tamberlyn was born 17 years ago to a happily divorced and somewhat alternative family. She hates conformist, and tends to write about some things that are off the wall. She has the drive to be a writer and hopes that one day you'll see her name on a pretty little book on the pretty New York Best sellers List, but advises you NOT to hold your breath. She loves Incubus, John Mayer, Counting Crows, and Ben Harper to listen to while writing. She watches CSI, Law & Order, BTVS, and Gilmore Girls when she has time. Her favorite authors are VC Andrews, Laurell K Hamilton, LJ Smith, Jackie Collins, and JD Robb. Oh. She's also still in highschool. She encourages you to visit her blog if you're wondering what the hell she's about, and let her know just how much you love her stories. C'mon. You know you want to. She doesn't think that every story should have a happy ending and hates when people try to force one upon her. She hates when people tell her how to write and feels that most people who flame are insecure of their writing and are jealous.
