Growing up in Atlanta, Meredith Walters often wandered nearby forests looking for animals and magic and writing stories about what she found. After getting a BA in literature from UC Berkeley, she spent ten years trying to figure out what she wanted to do with her life. Her adventures included volunteering for a nonprofit in Mexico, getting an MBA, and working for a social enterprise startup. Her short story collection The Adventures of Little One was published in 2018. Eventually, she moved back East to be close to her human and non-human family. She now lives in Atlanta, working as a life/career coach helping others rediscover their lost magic and once again writing stories about what she finds on her wanders through the woods.
