Melanie Doctors

Melanie Doctors is the author of Saints and Swimmers and Sleep in Peace. She writes stories that celebrate the beauty, mystery, humor, and heart of being human. Her novels invite readers to look more closely at the world around them—and within themselves.

Her stories are filled with profoundly flawed humans whose lives are forever altered by love, loss, laughter, and the mysteries that connect us to one another.

Melanie enjoys traveling, soaking up the Boise magic whenever she can, and collecting stories worth telling. She lives in Idaho with her husband, Mike, and their beloved animals. Together, they write and play original music as the acoustic duo Witches and Beer. Somewhere, her next novel is already whispering its secrets.
