Meg's author journey

Writing, like breathing, has always been a necessity for Meg. While she's fully aware of how pretentious this sounds, it's still true. The first book Meg ever "wrote" was dictated to her mom at age 4, and from there she didn't look back. From hand-written romance stories inspired by Arthurian legend to wildly niche YA sci-fi novels, Meg has done it all! Well... some of it.

​

In 2012, Meg embarked on a 10-year journey in traditional publishing. When that didn't pan out, she said "fuck it" and decided to self-publish her NA fantasy romance duology, starting with Destroyer. While the indie world is fraught with dangers and anxiety, Meg has found it to be deeply rewarding, and loves the community she's found there.

Destroyer

The Shattered City: Book One

At the center of a forbidden ruin, an artifact of black stone is unearthed.

​

Archaeologist Ru Delara, vilified by the scientific community for believing in magic, is summoned to investigate. But when she arrives, she finds herself inexorably drawn to the artifact, even though it could harbor untold destructive power.

 

Determined to discover the stone's true nature, Ru and mysterious stranger Fen must unravel its secrets -- while contending with a profound mutual attraction -- before the artifact falls into the wrong hands...

​

Before its darkness engulfs them all.

Praise for Destroyer

 

"The romance is smokin' hot and the mystery at its core had me hooked."
