Meghan Simonie
My name is Meghan Simonie and I was born and raised in metro Detroit. I am wife to my best friend and partner in crime, Matt, a mom to two of the most amazing human beings, Madelyn and Jack, and an Immigration Paralegal for a large law firm in downtown Detroit. I've always had a passion for writing and have also always been a very open person. Combining those traits have inspired me to contribute to this awesome network of Detroit area moms. What I never expected to find was such an outstanding group of not just fellow writers, but true friends.
