Emma Shelford

I'm Emma Shelford, author of 22 urban fantasy novels. I also write under the pen name Michelle Ford with my culinary cozy mysteries. I feel that life is only complete with healthy doses of magic, history, food, and science. Since these aren't often found in the same place, I created my own worlds where they happily coexist. If you catch me in person, I will eagerly discuss Lord of the Rings ad nauseam, why the ancient Sumerians are so cool, how to make mozzarella, and the important role of phytoplankton in the ocean.

My urban fantasy series include Depths of Magic, Magical Morgan, Immortal Merlin, Nautilus Legends, and Forest Fae.

My culinary cozy mystery series is the Cheese Café Cozy Mysteries.
