Melody Simpson

Hi, there! I’m Melody Simpson, lover of books, Broadway, TV, and film! I have written TV recaps, reviews, and more for OMFGTV, The Televixen, Buzzfocus, and TVOverMind. I used to co-host Gleek Squad, the first podcast dedicated to the hit Fox series, Glee.

I currently run Melanin in YA, a database for all things Black in traditional young adult publishing. If you’re looking for Black Y.A. authors, Black literary agents who rep Y.A., Black editors, Black influencers (BookTube, Bookstagram, etc…), head to Melanin in YA!  You can check out my short story, “The Guardrail Disappears” in the feminist horror anthology, BETTY BITES BACK: STORIES TO SCARE THE PATRIARCHY Edited by Mindy McGinnis, Demitria Lunetta, and Kate Karyus Quinn.

I’m thirty born and raised in New Jersey and currently residing in Los Angeles, CA. I am represented by JL Stermer.
