Hi, I’m L. Melissa Smith, an author, publisher, and lover of stories. I write both fiction and nonfiction that explore faith, emotional wellness, history, and the hidden parts of our everyday lives.

Through Grace to Bloom Publishing, I’m building a space where stories can inspire healing, spark hope, and preserve voices that need to be heard. At the heart of it all, I believe words have the power to change lives, and I’m grateful to share mine with you.
