Mercy writes young adult contemporary fantasy novels about strange magic with some small town flair.
Mercy grew up in the Arkansas Ozarks, but now lives outside of Cleveland, Ohio with two cats, two kids, and a husband. She's a librarian at a small liberal arts college, so along with being a writer her search history is a travesty. She is a 2019 PitchWars mentee and her short fiction has been starred in Kirkus Reviews.
When not writing, her hobbies include digging around in her garden, riding horses in perfect circles, and obsessing over random events in history.
