Eighteen-year-old freshman college student, Meghan Avila, wrote and self-published her first poetry collection, My Baby Blue Hydrangeas in March 2023. Marking the beginning of Spring with her book, she reveals glimpses into her early adolescence within her poems. Love and heartbreak, mental health struggles and wellness, and acceptance and self-discovery are explored through sections of different flowers to emulate birth and death of parts of her life. 

A undergraduate student at Emmanuel College in her birth city, Boston, Meghan is currently in the process of obtaining her Bachelor's Degree in Writing, Editing, & Publishing. When she's not working at her school's library or attending class, you can find Meghan playing guitar and singing in her dorm, going out with her friends in the city, or out reading under the sun.
