About the author

Megan O'Neill might not be a household name yet, but the author of (Baseball) Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend and Everything I Know: Lessons for Life, Love, and Laughter is just getting started. A Pittsburgh girl through and through, she's a sports fan, an actress, a fiction aficionada who also has an interest in war-time literature (both fictional and non-), a Broadway and theater enthusiast, a film and TV junkie, and a music lover.

A graduate of Duquesne University with a B.A. in English (what do you do with a B.A. in English? You write!) and a double-minor in Spanish and Theology, she spends her days as a loan processor while working on expanding her list of literary credits. You can find her on Twitter at @missmegs13, email at megs.likes.words@gmail.com, and of course, right here at Goodreads!

Don't worry, she doesn't bite. :]

Thank you for sharing the stories of your grandfather. He was a wonderful man it seems. He reminded me so much of my father in law.
I was lucky enough to receive this book on a goodreads giveaway.
What a lovely and touching book truly written from and with the heart.
