I believe that stories can change the world. I also believe that teens and young adults have eyes that are open and ears that are awake to the thrumming life hidden deep within great books. I write YA fiction because I'm in love with stories and because I want generations of young people to hold tight to the vastness of their potential—the potential that lies waiting in all of us. The world is ours for the making.

No matter who you are, you have the power to do great things.

Happy reading! — Melissa

Pictures & Poems: Mundane

[image error]oh the days seem

less holy

when things go

just all right

as if skin cells

didn’t

contain endless

possibilities

and the hours

dripping, skipping by

weren’t

a dance

bringing reality

into bright, glorious being

“Mundane” – Melissa Kircher
