Writer & Journalist

Meg LeDuc is a Master of Fine Arts in Writing graduate and a winner of a Michigan Press Association Award. Through personal and journalistic mental health writing, she explores life’s power differentials and profound transformations.

A former daily-newspaper staff writer, Meg currently contributes to Issue Media Group’s MI Mental Health Series and writes a blog, “The Lives We Don’t See” for Psychology Today. In addition to her masters from Vermont College of Fine Arts, she earned an Honors Bachelor of Arts in English & Creative Writing from the University of Michigan.

Her writing appears in Brevity, Mount Hope, and Cleaver, with an essay recently published in HuffPost. A personal essay is forthcoming from Third Coast Magazine. Her writing has been nominated for a Pushcart and supported by the Bread Loaf Writers Conference. A two-time Cleaver Emerging Artist, she was a finalist in nonfiction contests sponsored by CRAFT and Fugue.

When not writing, Meg can be found boxing, lifting weights, or cooking and baking—and never, ever measuring spices.
