About this title

About the Author

As a South Florida resident since 1972, I am a veteran of hurricane survival. My career as an author began in 2009, and I have published a novel every two and a half years since. I plan to complete the five books of my "Disaster Survival Series" within the next nine months. I passionately believe that getting concise, geographic-specific vital information to the public for seasonal natural disasters can save homes, heartache, and lives. We live in a mobile culture and a family moving from a winter storm-prone area to a hurricane-prone, tornado or wildfire-prone area needs specific and timely survival information. I have been a professional photographer, a catastrophic insurance adjuster, and have traveled three continents teaching English as a second language. My photographic images are sold in my Etsy store, StockPhotoCo. With God as the wind in my sails, I have always considered life to be a too-short span of time, with creative opportunities to be embraced and pursued. My dog Lexie proofreads, corrects punctuation and rephrases passive verbs for me.

Review

J. Bennett, Forensic Engineer: "I highly recommend you get this book by Megy Davis. It contains the necessary lists, tools and provisions that you need to safely navigate a storm and to prepare yourself and your loved ones to get through the next BIG one. I highly recommend it.

K. Finegan, English Language Teacher: "A gem of a book. As a longtime S. Florida resident, it's tempting for me to think 'I've got this' when it comes to hurricane season. Well, read and learn! Priceless information with the emphasis, where it should be, on preparation."

Clay Hogg, Insurance Adjuster: "What a font of knowledge packaged up into an informal and easy to read book!! The information found inside can help mitigate loss, prepare you to stay safe during, and the initial steps following a hurricane. I think it's a great read and not overwhelming, as if there isn't enough to think about before a hurricane makes landfall..."

S. Hill, Librarian: "This is well done, comprehensive, and useful. Realtors should be encouraged to provide one for every sale they close."

A. Morris, Exotic Animal Trainer: It is officially hurricane season, and I wasn't preparing ... or at least until I read this book! I was born in Florida and am still here. I love how this guide is to the point and easy to follow. You don't have to read the entire thing but go to the chapters that you need at the time. It's an easy go-to guide to help prepare for a hurricane, from someone who has lived through so many in Florida. The best part is that this book also does so much more! It mentioned things that I never thought mattered, or knew to think about at all. This guide teaches you how to fully prepare before, during, and what to do after the storm has left.
