I’m Melodie Coulter-Pennington

I love to share stories, laugh, and create!

I live in my favorite place in the world: Tulsa, Oklahoma, with my husband (Jared Coulter), our two kids, and our dog.

I grew up in a military family, moving all over the United States. After finishing a Bachelor of Arts in journalism, I moved to Tulsa in 2015, where I realized news was too sad for me and began my Master of Library and Information Studies.

I own Meadow Market Books with Jared, and I’m currently working on my second novel when I’m not focusing on a play or event.
