Megan Gilbert is a writer, reader, English teacher and peppermint tea drinker from Sydney, Australia. Through her post-graduate studies in creative writing, she has delved into a variety of genres, text types and mediums. Her first love is speculative fiction, particularly fantasy. She seeks to write stories that inspire young and new adults to read more avidly.

Megan is passionate about writing stories for young people, especially young women, through allegorical fantasy stories with strong female leads and challenging plots. Having worked with teenagers for many years, she believes it is imperative to provide young adults with stories that promote positive representations of managing mental health and body inclusivity, in particular.

Princess of Dawn is Megan’s first foray in the publishing world and looks forward to exploring Galdinia’s story further in the remaining books of the Crystal Crown Trilogy.
