J.D. Melton is an author who enjoys telling stories that wander into mystery, adventure, suspense, and the strange places in between. His books range from young characters chasing clues and uncovering secrets to ordinary people finding themselves face-to-face with things that should not exist.
Rather than sticking to a single genre, Melton writes the kinds of stories he enjoys reading—stories with memorable characters, a strong sense of place, a little humor when it fits, and enough unanswered questions to keep the pages turning.
For him, writing usually begins with a simple question: What would happen if...? From there, things have a tendency to get complicated.
J.D. Melton continues to develop new stories and series, always looking for the next mystery, adventure, or very bad idea to send his characters into.
