Megan is the author of, The Sock Thief which was included in The Creative Kids Tales Story Collection Vol. 1 in 2017, and An Angel to Watch Over Them (shortlisted) in the anthology Three Dummies in a Dinghy and Other Stories of Life in 2018. Her stories, Freya and the Fear Monster and Super Moon and Fairy Dust in The Creative Kids Tales Story Collection Vol. 2 in 2019. Three Seconds, Truck Stops and Log Trucks (shortlisted) in Papa’s Shoes and Other Stories of Life 2019. Raymund and the Fear Monster is her debut picture book and will be released in October 2019.
Megan has always been an avid reader of books from all genres, but she especially enjoys sci-fi and fantasy. As a child and teenager, if she could have combined reading from horseback while galloping along Mackay’s beaches, or while mustering cattle in the Queensland outback she would have. (Of course, she would have not enjoyed the thrill of adventure if she’d had her head in a book).
Megan has always written stories. However, it is only within the last five years that she started calling herself a writer. She loves to encourage children to read, and write their own stories. She loves to share her own stories, and encouraging children to create their own stories, and have fun doing it.

My first radio interview — February 2019
On the 26th February, I was interviewed on Gippsland FM. We chatted about the Street Libraries project I'm involved in, the stories I've written, my book, 'Raymund and the Fear Monster' coming out soon, reading and writing. It was lots of fun.
And all this on little sleep and severe brain fog. All in all the interview went pretty well. It must have. They invited me back.
