Blame the Internet Blame the Internet By Megan Cutler | January 25, 2016 | Comments 0 Comment I’ve read a staggering number of articles lately about how technology is destroying the world. Studies show that people are ‘addicted’ to connectivity, unable to disconnect and walk away. Studies also show that children who grow up with this technological addiction have a harder time empathizing with their fellow human beings. Rather than hailing the … Read More Read More
The Meaning of Privacy The Meaning of Privacy By Megan Cutler | August 17, 2015 | Comments 0 Comment When I was young, we never imagined a camera in every phone. We hadn’t even realized you’d be able to use portable CD players the same way you used a walkman cassette player and, in fact, cameras still required film. Oh boy, I’m dating myself! What a fantastic and novel concept, a portable database of … Read More Read More

Writers are not the Villains Writers are not the Villains By Megan Cutler | September 8, 2014 | Comments 1 comment Every now and then a post creeps across my tumblr dash in which readers express a desire to ‘steal’ their favourite novel characters from their respective author in order to ‘shield’ them. These posts usually involve keeping the writer at bay until they ‘learn how to properly take care of’ said characters. Subsequent replies discuss … Read More Read More

Most are stress related, but stress can be generated by our thoughts and attitudes.

Nothing to Hide Nothing to Hide By Megan Cutler | July 21, 2014 | Comments 0 Comment So many videos go viral these days, I rarely pay attention. While scrolling through my Facebook newsfeed this one caught my eye. It’s a makeup advertisement (and a few years old it seems). The company asked the most tattooed man in the world – every inch of his body is covered in ink, including his … Read More Read More
Breaking the Bubble Breaking the Bubble By Megan Cutler | June 9, 2014 | Comments 3 comments 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. There’s lots of comics floating around on the Internet explaining what it’s like to be an introvert. Until I read them, … Read More Read More
Taking the Leap Taking the Leap By Megan Cutler | June 2, 2014 | Comments 1 comment There seems to be an eternal debate between Traditional Publishing and Self-publishing. People will argue over which is ‘better,’ with certain camps believing adamantly that self-publication ‘doesn’t count.’ I’m not here to throw my two cents into the ring; it’s obvious where my opinion falls. Suffice to say, there are advantages and disadvantages to each … Read More Read More
Going Overboard Going Overboard By Megan Cutler | May 5, 2014 | Comments 0 Comment 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.
