Lily Meade: Hi, my name is Lily Meade. It's a pretty simple name, Lily like the flower, Meade like the alcohol, or the paper company, whichever one you choose.

I chose this name, it's not actually my real name, at least the first part of it. Meade is my last name. I chose this pen name because my first name, it's misspelled, even by family members, to this day, and I just didn't want to lose readers because people couldn't spell my name. There's only one way to misspell Lily, and it usually still brings you back to me.
