Upcoming Facebook Author Takeover Event
I. Megan Cassidy - is an author and English
professor from Lockport, NY currently teaching at Schenectady County Community
College. Her first book, Always, Jessie, a young adult novel inspired by
Megan’s own ten-year struggle with eating disorders and exercise addiction and
the treatment she received, will be published by Saguaro Books this spring.
Megan’s short work has been featured in Pilcrow & Dagger, Wordhaus, and
Gilded Serpent Magazine. When not reading, writing, or teaching,
Megan can be found painting, kayaking, hiking, belly dancing, and exploring New
York’s Capital Region.
Jessie is an ambitious but lonely high school junior
struggling with EDNOS (Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified), a disorder
which takes on various features of anorexia, bulimia, and exercise addiction.
Burdened with pressures from school, peers, and the responsibility of caring
for two younger sisters, Jessie tries to control the chaos through her
disorder, but finds herself becoming even more isolated and depressed. After a
life-threatening incident sends her to the hospital, Jessie’s family confronts
her; she admits she has a problem and agrees to enter a residential treatment
facility.
