Meet Ves, AKA Reaper Meet Ves, AKA Reaper By Megan Cutler | October 2, 2017 | Comments 1 comment Our trip to England was a chance to meet some friends who had only been online acquaintances up until that point. Which turned out to be awesome, since they introduced us to their other geeky friends and even invited us to join their table top role playing group. While we were in England, the group … Read More Read More
Six Silly Dragon Stories (from My Real Life) Six Silly Dragon Stories (from My Real Life) By Megan Cutler | May 22, 2017 | Comments 0 Comment I used to collect dragons. I started in high school when my grandmother purchases me a hand-blown glass dragon as a birthday gift. For awhile, everywhere I went, I came home with a new dragon. Unfortunately, any type of figure collecting is expensive, and my husband and I agree we’ve run out of places to … Read More Read More
What Does Success Actually Mean to You? What Does Success Actually Mean to You? By Megan Cutler | April 10, 2017 | Comments 3 comments Three years ago, I pressed publish for the first time, releasing Island of Lost Forevers into the wild. I was alone in my living room in England at the time. I was nervous, excited and maybe a bit sick to my stomach. Sometimes I’m not certain how I found the courage to click the button; … Read More Read More
I Am an Immigrant I Am an Immigrant By Megan Cutler | March 27, 2017 | Comments 1 comment I’m not what most people think of when they think of an immigrant. And most people have something in mind when they talk about immigrants; an idea that’s less than kind. But immigrant I am. I grew up in a small town in central Pennsylvania. At age 18, I married a Canadian and moved to … Read More Read More
A Taste of DavidsTea A Taste of DavidsTea By Megan Cutler | February 6, 2017 | Comments 0 Comment I’ve spent a lot of time talking about the delicious Adiago blends (orchard herbals, green rooibos and teas of Japan) that my mother-in-law sent me for my birthday. This really opened the door to loose leaf tea for me and I’ve quickly become a fanatic. While visiting a DavidsTea at our local mall, one of … Read More Read More
Four Reasons I Don’t Want to Go Home Four Reasons I Don’t Want to Go Home By Megan Cutler | January 16, 2017 | Comments 0 Comment I’ve talked before about my immigration to Canada. The question I get most often, especially when visiting friends and family, is; “Do you plan to come back?” In many ways, this topic is a loaded one. I appreciate that people miss me and want to see me more often. It would be nice to live … Read More Read More
Space and Dark Space Space and Dark Space By Megan Cutler | October 24, 2016 | Comments 8 comments I’ve been posting writing prompts for a year now. A lot of them are interconnected in one way or another, so it may be time for a little site re-organization. It’s true I am telling stories in fragments, but it may be time to let them be stories. I have been steadily introducing the characters … Read More Read More
Don’t Forget Your Towel Don’t Forget Your Towel By Megan Cutler | September 12, 2016 | Comments 2 comments I don’t have a lot of experience with hot springs. In fact, most of my knowledge comes from anime, and I’m going to assume all of it is wrong. So when my in-laws suggested a couple of nights stay in a cabin near one, I was all for it. Turns out we only live about … Read More Read More
Don’t Forget Time to Recharge Your Energy Don’t Forget Time to Recharge Your Energy By Megan Cutler | June 13, 2016 | Comments 1 comment I can’t count the number of times I’ve gotten halfway through a sandwich, bowl of soup or cup of coffee before I realized I’ve barely tasted it. I always slow down and try to savor those last few bites or sips. But it’s too late. I’ve already missed enjoying the full experience. We live in … Read More Read More
Opening a New and Exciting Life Chapter Opening a New and Exciting Life Chapter By Megan Cutler | May 2, 2016 | Comments 3 comments Moving across an ocean is hard. It’s slightly easier when you know people waiting for you on the other side, but that doesn’t make it any less challenging. When we left for England, we had no idea what to expect. We didn’t really know anyone on the other side of the pond, and we expected … Read More Read More
