Guilty Pleasures Guilty Pleasures By Megan Cutler | June 1, 2015 | Comments 1 comment I usually don’t like the term ‘guilty pleasures.’ I think if you enjoy something, you shouldn’t feel ashamed. Yet I feel a hint of shame whenever I think of the items on this list. These movies are so bad. Every time I hear someone mention hating one of them, I bow my head and quietly … Read More Read More
Hadrian’s Wall Hadrian’s Wall By Megan Cutler | May 25, 2015 | Comments 0 Comment In 123 AD, the Roman Emperor Hadrian ordered the building of a vast wall across the frontier of Roman Britain. It’s purpose was to keep the Romans separated from the barbarians, since the Romans were having trouble conquering what remained of the British isle. The wall Hadrian’s soldiers built spanned 73 miles, from Bowness-on-Solway to … Read More Read More
Heavy Metal History Heavy Metal History By Megan Cutler | May 11, 2015 | Comments 0 Comment I’ve written a lot about how music inspires me. I listen to it while I’m writing, planning, and even editing. The right playlist helps set the tone for creative work. But outside that, it also inspired me to read several classic novels. To the long list of things music (especially heavy metal) has inspired me … Read More Read More
A Truly Impressive View A Truly Impressive View By Megan Cutler | May 4, 2015 | Comments 1 comment It may sound strange, but one of my favourite parts of our trip to Scotland was our drive across the country. There are some truly impressive landscapes in Scotland and I’m not sure I can do justice to them with words. A picture really is worth a thousand. After our trip to Dunnotar Castle, we … Read More Read More

Sticking With It Sticking With It By Megan Cutler | April 13, 2015 | Comments 2 comments There’s a lively debate on the Internet over whether or not you should finish every book you start. (Are there things that don’t get debated on the Internet anymore?) I don’t intend to participate in the debate. I think you should do whatever makes you happy. I, personally, finish (almost) every book I start. A … Read More Read More
Urquhart Castle Urquhart Castle By Megan Cutler | March 30, 2015 | Comments 0 Comment We didn’t have much time on our first trip to Scotland so we had to prioritize the sites we wanted to see. We all agreed it wouldn’t be a trip to Scotland if we didn’t see castles. We skipped the more touristy ones in favour of Dunnotar and Urquhart. The tourist center at Urquhart castle … Read More Read More

This year, a very good friend of mine is making the journey north to admire our beautiful mountains, eat our fabulous poutine, and make use of our nifty guest room. So I will be AFK for the next two … Read More Read More
Dunnotar Castle Dunnotar Castle By Megan Cutler | February 23, 2015 | Comments 3 comments Of all the things we saw while we were in the UK, Dunnotar Castle has to be my favourite.

But never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined visiting a place like Dunnotar Castle (perhaps partly … Read More Read More
Stuff and Things Stuff and Things By Megan Cutler | February 16, 2015 | Comments 0 Comment I’ve written at length about the amazing adventure my husband and I embarked upon a year and a half ago when he accepted a job in the UK. I don’t think either of us believed it would actually happen when he received the email invitation. But it did and, amazing as it was, I’d be … Read More Read More
