Megan Diedericks writes poetry and fiction, everything from meek to macabre can be found in between the lines.

Her poetry explores themes of mental health and self-reflection, and when they're not personal—her poems are speculative in nature. The main genres she writes fiction in are Horror, Fantasy, and something akin to Science Fiction. Her work has been published in over 30 journals and presses, both online and in print!

The 2025 Rhysling Award Nominee is the author of two books: "The Coffin Chronicles" (Island of Wak-Wak, 2025) and "the darkest of times, the darkest of thoughts" (self-published, 2022).

Before You Wake is a collection of three wonderfully executed horror stories, with my favorite being the final story, Hippocampus, for its slow build and steady shift from one scene to the next. It starts off almost peaceful, with the horror and gore ...more

This book is honestly severely underrated.

C.O.B. followed through on everything promised at the beginning—humor, heaviness; really just humanness.

The poetry is fantastic and I love how it was all interwoven with little (and long) stories and thought
