I’ve had the pleasure of visiting North Carolina three times with my a cappella group for a conference called SoJam. The first two times, if I remember correctly, were at Duke University in Durham. I didn’t spend a great amount of time there because it was mostly spent on campus at the conference, but IContinue reading “Wanderlust: North Carolina”

Meagan Reads YA Sci-Fi: Delirium by Lauren Oliver
Read this book for the 26 book reading challenge I started a couple of years ago and am still chugging through for the category “a book set in summer.” The whole novel takes place in Portland, Maine in the summer before a life-changing event takes place in the main character’s life. Quick summary that includesContinue reading “Meagan Reads YA Sci-Fi: Delirium by Lauren Oliver”
Forever Golden
Wrote this a few years ago for an assignment in my first creative writing class at UCF. It was their fiftieth anniversary, the golden one. Fifty years ago on this day Theodore and Ethel were married in her father’s blooming garden. It had been filled with red and pink roses, white and purple carnations, purestContinue reading “Forever Golden”
Waiting On the River
This is an updated version of a piece of flash fiction I wrote for a prompt. The original is published on my old writer’s blog here. A drop of sweat rolled down Riley’s forehead. Her eyes darted back and forth. She stared at the hand in her grasp. She swallowed hard and licked her lipsContinue reading “Waiting On the River”
Guardian Angels
This is another one from the Supernatural chapbook I’d made for my friend’s birthday. Originally shared here. “Angel of God, my guardian dear. To whom his love commits me here…” —Old children’s prayer Mom always said angels were watching over me but with what life dealt me, I found that hard to believe. Then IContinue reading “Guardian Angels”
Wanderlust: New York City
Let’s start this travel blogging endeavor with the first trip I remember making that gave me the travel bug. I don’t count Puerto Rico at 1-year-old or Jersey at four because I have no memories of those trips. No, my first official journey into the world of travel happened when I was 8-years-old and myContinue reading “Wanderlust: New York City”
Carry On Wayward Sons
Originally published on my old writer’s blog here, made for a chapbook for my friend’s birthday. It starts as far back as Michael and Lucifer, two brothers whose love drove to the destruction of Heaven and earth. One loved his Father, and the other adored his brother. This growing separation led to a road ofContinue reading “Carry On Wayward Sons”
Meagan Reads YA Fantasy: The Demon King by Cinda Williams Chima
I’m going into my third year of the 26 book reading challenge (I’m a slow reader–sue me). For book 17, “a book by an author you love,” I went with Cinda Williams Chima’s The Demon King since I loved her Heir series. A quick rundown of the story. It follows the lives of two characters: Raisa,Continue reading “Meagan Reads YA Fantasy: The Demon King by Cinda Williams Chima”
On Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale and Yearning
I really need to read The Handmaid’s Tale! Loved this post <3
Wanderlust: Introduction
I haven’t done too much traveling in my nearly 26 years of living, but I’ve decided that shouldn’t deter me from using those few and sparse experiences as fodder for my writing. This is just an introduction post to let my followers/readers know what to expect from these posts. You’ll know what to look forContinue reading “Wanderlust: Introduction”
