Meet Melanie Clifford

Melanie Clifford was born and raised in Kasson, Minnesota, a small town in southern Minnesota. She has spent many years working as a volunteer in Christian counseling. She is a professional artist who has had her work commissioned by clients and has sold her paintings at art festivals and at juried art shows.

After thirty-five years of painting, Melanie decided to try her hand at writing and The Earth Waited was created.

She and her husband live in Maple Grove , Minnesota and have three children and ten grandchildren.  She especially loves the time she spends with her family. When not painting or writing she relaxes with her husband and enjoys their time together at their cabin.
