Melanie Dyer lives in Arkansas and is happily married. She is an avid reader and also enjoys other “Introverted” hobbies such as gaming, music, and movies. While she enjoys several genres of books, historical fiction usually tops the list, and she loves revisiting favorite books from her childhood. Her favorite author is LM Montgomery with C.S. Lewis and Jim Butcher rounding out the top three. She has made efforts with writing but has a tendency towards “Squirrel!” syndrome and loses track of what she’s doing.
Podcasting is their sidehustle and they started "The Bookish Introverts Podcast" because ... they're introverted friends who wanted to talk about the books they love.
