MWSA member and author Megan Michelle comes from a military family and always dreamed of joining. A heart condition brought her military service dreams to an end so she writes as a way to highlight

The MWSA review said, "Readers of action thrillers will appreciate Skylark: The SEAL Saga Book One, although they will encounter variations in this example of the genre. Contemporary popular culture features many smart, beautiful, female soldiers, detectives, and spies; but in this long novel Megan Michelle gives more space than most authors to the emotional and psychological complexity of these figures."

Megan Michelle had this to say: "This is one of my proudest achievements. Receiving this award from an organization as committed to quality and craftsmanship as the MWSA is so validating to me as an author."
