Dance Party Magic Dance Party Magic By Megan Cutler | April 22, 2013 | Comments 1 comment The Magic Kingdom is simultaneously my favorite and least favorite Disney park. Most of the Magic Kingdom is meant for kids, but it’s also the heart of Disney, the heart of my childhood, the place where all the movies I loved as a kid come to life. But it’s the hottest of all the parks … Read More Read More
The Fanny Pack Fiasco The Fanny Pack Fiasco By Megan Cutler | April 1, 2013 | Comments 1 comment As I mentioned in my last vacation post, my recent trip to Florida included my first trip to Universal Studios. Our second day at the park started at the customer service desk. The Gryffindor friend I mentioned in my last post purchased a t-shirt from the Islands of Adventure park which needed to be exchanged. … Read More Read More
Islands of Adventure Islands of Adventure By Megan Cutler | March 11, 2013 | Comments 1 comment My fall trip to Florida included my first trip to Universal studios. I’ve heard a lot about the parks from others who’ve visited, and I know a lot of the history, but I’d never experienced it myself. Of course, Universal’s newest and most popular attraction is the Harry Potter themed park where they recreated Hogwarts … Read More Read More
Accomplishing the Impossible Accomplishing the Impossible By Megan Cutler | March 4, 2013 | Comments 4 comments Every time I get mired in the rejection fugue brought on by the inability to sell my latest work, I remind myself, as everyone does, things aren’t as bad as they seem. Getting published isn’t as impossible as it feels. And even if it is, I shouldn’t feel daunted. After all, I’ve already accomplished one … Read More Read More
I Want to Bang on the Drums All Day I Want to Bang on the Drums All Day By Megan Cutler | February 18, 2013 | Comments 1 comment I hope no one finds these personal interludes too boring. While I don’t treat this blog as my personal journal, I do like to keep track of interesting things happening in my life. A trip to Disney with a best friend I haven’t seen in awhile is certainly a major event. This was my first … Read More Read More
Life-Shaping Experiences Life-Shaping Experiences By Megan Cutler | February 4, 2013 | Comments 3 comments I’m relatively young. I’m not sure if I’ll say the same in a few years, when I turn thirty, but at the moment I don’t feel old. I’m probably too young to write blogs including life-changing advice, but I’m going to attempt it anyway. Because I can. And because, though I’m still fairly young, a … Read More Read More
The Yak and the Yeti The Yak and the Yeti By Megan Cutler | January 28, 2013 | Comments 2 comments Disney’s Animal Kingdom isn’t quite a zoo but isn’t exactly an amusement park either. It’s a sort of mash-up of the two. I recall the park feeling a tad sparse when we visited on our honeymoon. Since I wasn’t feeling well, we only spent a half day there and I didn’t feel we missed anything. … Read More Read More
The Right Way to Write The Right Way to Write By Megan Cutler | January 14, 2013 | Comments 5 comments I can’t claim to be a writing expert. I don’t have any publications under my belt yet. But I have spent the last two years trying to make writing my full-time gig and I’ve learned quite a lot during that time. One thing I’ve consistently struggled with is my productivity. It’s great to work from … Read More Read More
Taste Your Way Around the World Taste Your Way Around the World By Megan Cutler | January 7, 2013 | Comments 1 comment The World Showcase at Epcot has always been my favorite part of Disney World. When you think of amusement parks, most minds probably jump to the rides and perhaps the special character interactions. But I love what the World Showcase represents. It’s little pieces of the world in bite-sized chunks I can experience in a … Read More Read More
