Melinda Priebe is an author and artist who lives in South Bend, Indiana, with her supportive, loving husband. Even as a young child, Melinda would allow her imagination to soar to the point where she suddenly had ideas for stories and shared them with anyone who would listen. Then a traumatic brain injury caused her to lose her artistic talent and storytelling ability. However, Melinda has miraculously regained her art and writing skills. She also has healed from other traumas and has found closure to the death of her 13-year-old daughter. Melinda's mission is to bring hope to others through her writing and artwork, and she has no intention of slowing down anytime soon.
