I'm Megan. I'm a high school English teacher and mom. I write YA contemporary. I'm inspired by my own teen days and my students, especially the girls that never feel like they are enough. By books are for them :)

last night, i got personalized feedback on a partial with an offer to resubmit and I almost cried from relief! Having some idea of what I can do to move forward and find success is so reassuring :) I know not agents have the time to do this, but wow it goes such a long way!
