Meg Dendler has considered herself a writer since she won a picture book contest in 5th grade and entertained her classmates with ongoing sequels for the rest of the year. Beginning serious work as a freelancer in the ‘90s while teaching elementary and middle school, Meg has over 100 articles in print, including interviews with Kirk Douglas, Sylvester Stallone, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. She has won contests with her short stories and poetry, along with multiple awards for her best-selling “Cats in the Mirror” alien rescue cat children’s book series.

Books under her care have become best sellers and won awards through Killer Nashville and WILLA. While she personally writes about alien rescue cats, adventurous dogs, princesses who ride dragons, ghosts, and half-tiger/half-human creations, Meg edits books in nearly every genre—from kidlit to dark motorcycle club romance.

As a freelance writer, Meg has been publishing articles since the early ’90s and has over 100 articles in print, including interviews with Sylvester Stallone, Kirk Douglas, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Meg’s own books have won a Moonbeam Children’s Book Award, Mom’s Choice Award recognition, and Best Juvenile Book of the Year from the Oklahoma Writers’ Federation.
