So, this is me. I'm Megan Bostic. I am Creative Chaos. Why? Because my writing style, as well as my life is in a constant state of chaos. That's it. I'm a legal marketer during the day writer at night. My first novel, Never Eighteen was published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt just over a year ago.
I'm also a soccer mom, vlogger, blogger (obviously), amateur poet, who likes to mess with graphic design, websites, and other crap.
I mostly write contemporary realistic young adult (YA) literature, though I have a couple adult books in the works, as well as fantasy and sci-fi YA. I do like to write about dark or sad subjects, as I think they are stories that need to be told and I like to write characters that teens (and adults) can relate to.
My two teen daughters, who I often refer to as Thing One and Thing Two, are crazy beautiful, totally inappropriate, disgusting, and hilariously funny.
I'm a fan of the "F" word.
I love monkeys.
I wear black daily.
I love kickboxing.
I'm also a fan of NFL football, soccer, and my children.
I have a boyfriend who's off the charts awesome.
I think I'm going to try my hand at self publishing this year.
Music and life are my inspiration for writing.
I think that's it.
Hoping to see you on your blogs. Please feel free to leave a comment. I love comments and try to respond to them all.
Have a great re-introduction day!
Hi Megan, nice touch with the name tag. Nice to meet you.
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming by. Nice to meet you too.

Thanks for coming by Sue. I'll be sure to check out your blog.
ReplyDeleteYou totally sound like my kind of person! And your daughters and you seem to have a similar relationship to my mum and I - we are both disgusting and proud OF it. hehe
ReplyDeleteI think I am going to self-publish this year too! Just not sure what yet... I'm thinking of starting small, with a novella. But we'll see!
Good luck with all your goals, and your daughters must just love you. Too cool! No, I mean Uber-cool!
ReplyDeleteNice to meet you Megan, I'm Renee
Keep on writing! I've done both indie and traditional publishing and there are pluses and minuses to both. Do what you think is best for your book and career.
ReplyDeleteGreat to meet you, Megan. I tend to like darker books, movies, and TV.
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming by all. So nice to meet you!!! I think we'll be fantastic friends. :)
ReplyDeleteWell, congrats on your first novel last year. My YA series was much, much lighter. I just don't think the deep, dark stuff I guess.
ReplyDeleteHi, Megan,
ReplyDeleteIt's been a LONG time. This is the perfect time to say hi, and reintroduce ourselves.
ABNA 2010... talk about a blast for the past. LOL.
We have so much more in common than our Italian heritage. My second novel is a dark, edgy, Y/a contemporary. Deals with an army brad abused by his militant father. As you said, kids need to see the REAL world too.
All the best with your endeavors. Drop by my blog if you get a chance...
Hi Megan.
ReplyDeleteYou seem like lots of fun! What a snazzy name tag...
Congrats on the release of your first novel last year.
Please do enlighten me, where exactly is the Pacific Northwest? I'll have to google it.
Nice to meet you via the blogfest.
Thanks all. I'll take a look at all your blogs.
ReplyDeleteMichelle, the Pacific Northwest consists of Washington State, Oregon, Montana, Idaho. I think that's it. lol.
