Medieval Guildford

When company came to visit from across the ocean, we put together a large itinerary that would let us hit all the major sites. But when all was said and done, we had an extra day with nothing planned. It fell at the beginning of the trip, so we decided to hit somewhere close to …

Breaking the Bubble

Breaking the Bubble

People don’t believe me anymore when I tell them I’m shy. “But you’re so outgoing!” They’ll say. “You never seem to have trouble interacting with anyone!” But they don’t know it’s all an act.

Taking the Leap

Taking the Leap

There seems to be an eternal debate between Traditional Publishing and Self-publishing.

Suffice to say, there are advantages and disadvantages to each …

Who Am I?

Who Am I?

I’m sure it’s a bit late for a post like this, but I realized I’ve never properly introduced myself on this blog. And in light of current events, it seems appropriate. My name is Megan Cutler. I’m 28 years old and I’m a writer. Books have been a part of my life as far back …

Going Overboard

Going Overboard

Remember a few months ago when I mentioned our obsession with stuff? I’d like to believe it grows out of good intentions. The fact is, when you buy something big and expensive, you want to show it off. You’re proud that you were able to acquire this big, expensive thing, and you want people to …
