wednesdaysisterspbackcoverbenchfinalI’m the author of The Four Ms. Bradwells,
 The Wednesday Sisters, and The Language of Light.

I’m a national bestselling author thanks to:

-some wonderful bloggers,
-booksellers and librarians around the country (but especially in the San Francisco Bay Area),
-bookclubs (some of which are kind enough to include me in their discussions – which I love!), and other readers,
-my writing group, other writers, my agent, the amazing team at Ballantine, and
-incredibly supportive and wonderful family and friends.

Thank you all!

1st Books is one small attempt on my part to pay forward all that support I’ve gotten. I hope you enjoy it! – Meg
