About Melissa McKay

Melissa is an emerging author who writes about her life experiences, especially aspects of parenting a son with autism, struggles with depression, and her personal faith journey.

Her writing career began on a personal blog created in 2010. In 2018, she started writing down some of her stories as a form of therapy. After a couple of her essays were published, she decided to compile several of her essays into a book as a memoir.

Melissa is the Annuals Greenhouse Manager at a local nursery in Nashville, TN. When she’s not working or writing, she can be found digging in her garden, creating floral arrangements in her kitchen, or reading a book (which is probably about gardening or floral arranging).

Melissa is married to her high school sweetheart, Tim, and they have two adult children.
