Melanie Stanford reads too much, plays music too loud, is sometimes dancing, and always daydreaming. She would also like her very own TARDIS, but only to travel to the past. She lives outside Calgary, Alberta, Canada with her husband, four kids, and ridiculous amounts of snow. Her short stories have appeared in the Austenesque anthologies THEN COMES WINTER (2015) and THE DARCY MONOLOGUES (2017).
