About me
Melissa Olthoff is a science fiction and fantasy author who delights in sneaking in romance wherever she can. She is a lifelong geek as well as a veteran of the United States Air Force, both of which are incredibly useful when writing. Her degrees in meteorology and accounting are slightly less applicable to writing but absolutely useful when it comes to supporting her family. In 2023, she took second place in the annual Baen Fantasy Adventure Award Contest with her story "Fall From Grace" and won the Imadjinn Award Best Short Story for "Angel Wings and Demon Bones." She is published by Chris Kennedy Publishing and is best known for her novels in the Four Horsemen Universe, the Salvage Title Universe, and Hit World Valkyries, as well as numerous short stories.
