At the heart of LM Publishing House is a simple belief:
Words can heal. Stories can rebuild. Hope can be planted — even in the hardest seasons.
I’m Melody Plaatjes, founder of LM Publishing House.
A daughter, a mother, an author, a wife and someone who understands that grief and growth often walk hand-in-hand.
After losing my father — a humble medical missionary who gave his life to the service of others — I made a promise:
I would continue the work he started.
Not only through care and outreach, but through books that could heal broken spaces in both children and adults alike.
Through LM Publishing House, I use storytelling to advocate for mental health, emotional resilience, grief recovery, and childhood empowerment.
Every book I create is built from real experience, real prayer, and a deep calling to serve others.
The world doesn’t need more noise.
It needs more light.
That’s what LM Publishing House was created to do — and that’s what we’ll keep doing.
