Dream Debutante Dress - I grew up in the South, so you would think I knew all about debutante culture. But my town was more “rural Appalachia” than “high-society old world South”, so I didn’t really understand what debutantes were until I saw an episode of Vampire Diaries. I chose this Victorian-inspired dress because I did lots of historical research for The Madman’s Daughter, and am so jealous of the beautiful clothes women wore back then!
Notes from a YA Debutante
Ten Facts about me:
1. I have a zombie apocalypse escape plan. It involves a motorcycle, an island, and a lot of beef jerky. I can’t tell you anything else, because then I won’t have an edge.
2. I got a perm in high school, and I’m still emotionally scarred from it.
3. While working in Senegal, West Africa, I lived in a mud hut for two years, where I discovered scorpions had made a nest in my straw mattress.
4. The first story I ever wrote was a picture book about colony collapse disorder in bees. It didn’t sell.
5. I have a phobia of sleepwalkers. Just the thought of people walking around while they’re unconscious makes me break out in sweat.
6. I worked one summer as a park ranger in Glacier National Park, Montana. If I wasn’t a writer, this would be my dream job.
7. Patchouli is the worse smell imaginable.
8. I was an extra in The Hunger Games movie. It was filmed just outside of my town. You can see me in the movie but I’m reeeeeeally little.
9. I grew up in a bookstore, literally. My crib was behind the counter of my parents’ independent store.
10. I’m married to the most amazing man alive.

Bookie's Note: Megan, I just got a perm two weeks ago and I tried to wash it out now it's only curly on the bottom but I don't think I'll ever recover. Perms are just AWFUL. Never EVER again! I think that's so KEWL that you were an extra in The Hunger Games, I know Sasha @ Sash and Em was an extra in the movie too! I really should start thinking about my Zombie Apocalypse plan, since the world is ending in 4 days and everything...
Make sure to come back tomorrow for the second half of Megan's feature! We have some juicy secrets lined up and a fantastic giveaway!
