ⓘ About Melinda Metz
Melinda Metz is an American published author. She is perhaps most well-known for her original series of novels written with her co-author, Roswell High, which inspired the television show Roswell. Metz was born in California and grew up in San Jose. She had no deep interest in trying to learn to read with her mother when she was at kindergarten age. She also didn’t want to find out how to write down her name. She was all about the activities, like the playing, the finger paints, and taking naps. Melinda has been able to since move on to more adult things. For college, she attended the local state university in San Jose and her major was English. She graduated and then decided to move on to Manhattan so that she could pursue her career and what surely would be fortune.
