Pennsylvania. She was introduced
to Regency romances at a young age
by her mother who had a passion
for Georgette Heyer.
After graduating with a bachelor’s in Communication from the
University of Pennsylvania, Meredith worked in fund-raising
for a number of non-profit organizations. When this didn't
prove as fulfilling as she would have hoped, she went back to
school for a master's degree in secondary education where she
shared her love of history with a group inner-city teenagers.
Marriage and the birth of two children interrupted this second
attempt at a career.
In order to keep her sanity while raising her children,
Meredith began living in a fantasy world filled with dashing,
noble heroes and beautiful heroines. Desperately searching for
an excuse to put the children into daycare, Meredith decided to
write down her fantasies and call it "working".
She was amazed when someone, other than her husband,
actually liked her writing. In 2002, Meredith was one of the
three winners of the Royal Ascot Writing Contest and was
offered a two book contract with Kensington Publishers. MISS
SETON'S SONATA, Meredith’s first book, was released in
January 2004 from Zebra Books. Her second book, WOOING
MISS WHATELY, came out in June, '04. The last two books
of the Merry Men Quartet, LOVE OF MY LIFE and DAME
FORTUNE were published in June and September, 2005.
MISS SETON’S SONATA is the winner of the 2004 Golden
Leaf Contest for best Regency Romance. LOVE OF MY LIFE
won second place in the Write Touch Reader’s Award, 2005.
And DAME FORTUNE was a finalist in the National Reader's
Choice Award, The Beacon Award and the NJ Golden Leaf.
