Melissa Woods

Melissa is a Primary School teacher by day and a writer by night. She grew up in  a small town in the UK, and spent of her time with her nose in a book. 

Her childhood was filled with R.L Stein, Jacqueline Wilson, and J.K  Rowling, and they inspired her to begin creating her own worlds. Melissa  has always been fascinated with stories about living through an  apocalyptic event, and with characters who feel so real that they become  part of the reader long after the book was put away. She wrote the  first draft of Alive? at sixteen, and has been hooked on writing ever since.

When she’s not writing, Melissa enjoys reading, playing video games,  crocheting, and spending time with her two dogs (and occasionally her husband).
