Excess Baggage Excess Baggage By Megan Cutler | February 17, 2014 | Comments 4 comments When my husband got invited to work in England for a year, we packed our bags, sold our house and crossed the ocean. It wasn’t half as simple as it sounds, but we got there in the end. The first part of the process ended up more difficult than much of what came later. It’s … Read More Read More
Diamonds in the Rough Diamonds in the Rough By Megan Cutler | February 10, 2014 | Comments 1 comment My husband and I don’t watch a lot of TV. We gave up on it when most networks turned to reality TV and cheesy cop dramas (but that’s a whole other blog post). When we do fall in love with a TV show, its box sets inevitably adorn our shelves so we can re-watch them … Read More Read More
Waking to Wokingham Waking to Wokingham By Megan Cutler | February 3, 2014 | Comments 0 Comment If you recall, a few weeks ago I posted this picture of the view out our window from The Hope and Anchor, which we called home for a month. The pub is located in Wokingham, a short jump from the place we live now. It was the first place in England we got to properly … Read More Read More
Like Breath Like Breath By Megan Cutler | January 27, 2014 | Comments 2 comments Writers talk a lot about how they write. It’s a question people (including other writers) ask a lot. We also talk about why we write. What got us interested or involved in writing. The question people don’t ask, is what happens to a writer when they stop writing? It’s strange that the topic isn’t addressed … Read More Read More
A Green Christmas A Green Christmas By Megan Cutler | January 13, 2014 | Comments 0 Comment Due to the large price tag of a flight across the ocean, we spent Christmas in England this year. There wasn’t any snow. My husband can’t believe it. He might believe Christmas was a dream. Thanks to modern marvels like the Internet, however, both of us got to chat with our families on Christmas day. … Read More Read More
Crisis Mode Crisis Mode By Megan Cutler | January 6, 2014 | Comments 1 comment There are so many memes on the internet these days, I barely pay attention anymore. While scrolling through my Facebook news feed a few days ago, one did manage to catch my eye. It was one of those simple black and white images with a quote proclaiming some people think they could survive the zombie … Read More Read More
On the Horizon On the Horizon By Megan Cutler | January 1, 2014 | Comments 1 comment I can hardly believe we’re ringing in another new year! Just one year ago we were in blistery, wintery northern Quebec, half-buried in the snow! This year has seen the edit of one of the novels I wrote last year, and the writing of its sequel. It still hasn’t seen the publication of any of … Read More Read More
Yule be Swingin’ Yule be Swingin’ By Megan Cutler | December 23, 2013 | Comments 0 Comment In ancient days the folk of old When chilled with fright by Winter’s cold Did kindle up a great Yule fire With leaping flames in its great pyre; So to entice the waining sun To rise again and wider run; It’s firey course across the sky, To warm them so they would not die. So … Read More Read More
Bucket List Bucket List By Megan Cutler | December 16, 2013 | Comments 2 comments A few weeks ago I wrote about places I’d visit if I could go to any of the many made-up universes in my favorite books. As much as I like escaping into fantasy realms, there are plenty of places in the real world I’d like to visit. Traveling the world has always been something my … Read More Read More
