Malissa A Hall

Malissa Hall was raised by a rancher's son and a farmer's daughter. Born on the west coast but raised on the Islands and settled in the Midwest she had a slightly nomadic childhood which is typical of a Navy 'brat.' Married to a supportive 'redneck' husband, they combined their individual families, plus one, and raised five children together. She resides in rural Georgia and spends most of her days writing and volunteering within her community. In her hours away from typing on the computer she enjoys camping, reading, gardening, traveling, and working on her hobby farm while feeding her addiction to the Syfy and BBC channel. Her love of reading was passed on from her parents while her creative spark began when she started to write short stories for first her younger brother while in her youth that grew to spinning stories for her children as they were growing up. She finally decided to put them down in short novels for the young adult reading genera. She has a vast span of authors that she draws her inspiration and joy of reading from. Ranging from Edgar Allan Poe, Harper Lee, Shakespeare and Homer to the notoriously funny, late Erma Bombeck to the current internationally know authors who share her love of fiction; Nora Robert, Ilona Andrews, Jeanine Frost, Patricia Briggs, Kim Harrison, Carrie Vaughn and Karen Chance. Blessed Be!
