My first novel, Horror in the Woods, was released on in May 2017, and the second, The Demonic, on the the following July hitting multiple best seller lists. Since then, I have authored a number of horror novels that have terrified fans for the past few years.

After turning in one particularly gruesome piece at the age of thirteen, her parents were called into school to check if everything was alright at home.

Megan’s mother would prefer it if she wrote ‘Fantasy or Romance’ and threw the first draft of ‘Bully Me’ out with the trash. Megan rewrote the book in four days (on her chromebook) and added more gore just to spite her. (Megan usually likes to write her 1st draft longhand and owns lots of pens).
