Kendra Merritt

Books have been Kendra Merritt’s escape for as long as she can remember.  She used to hide fantasy novels behind her government textbook in high school, and she wrote most of her first novel during a semester of college algebra.

Older and wiser now (but just as nerdy) Kendra writes retellings of fairytales with main characters who have disabilities. If she isn’t writing, she’s reading, and if she isn’t reading, she’s playing video games. She is the author of By Wingéd Chair, a retelling of Robin Hood where Maid Marion kicks butt from a wheelchair.

Kendra lives in Denver with her very tall husband, their book loving progeny, and a lazy black monster masquerading as a service dog.
