Madison Chase is a co-authorship between Melissa A. Graham and Chelsea L. Belland. They have been writing together since the start of their friendship in 2008, in the world of forum-based roleplay. Through these experiences together, they have cultivated character-driven stories and dove into complex world-building. Through a shared love of their Pagan beliefs, of mythological figures, and–what some might consider edging on sadistic–enjoyment of putting their characters through intense conflicts, they have developed fun characters, rich worlds, complex family dynamics, and surprising love lives–including their own.
Chelsea is a mother, artist, Navy veteran, and one heck of a science nerd. She has created multiple roleplay forums and been the maestro for many fictional worlds, including some in the D&D realm. She works in Logistics, but her heart belongs to the fantastical. Chelsea adores outer space, science fiction, the Alien movies, and high fantasy epics.
Melissa is also a mother and artist, and has helped Chelsea moderate many of her roleplay worlds since 2008. She self-published one of the three main series–The Wolfblooded series–in 2013, with Chelsea being one of her first beta readers, which will eventually meet up with two other series to form the Anarchy Reigns Saga. Melissa is a substitute elementary teacher, has a degree in Educational Studies, is a licensed body piercer, and has an unhealthy obsession with rubber ducks.
They are also both members of the LGBTQ+, Polyamory, Pagan, and BDSM communities.
