Today, I'm happy to introduce Megan Just, one of my PitchWars sisters (Go Team Cora!). Here are some of things she unabashedly loves:
Not-So-Guilty Pleasures
Newspaper
I subscribe my community’s paper newspaper. The environmentalist in me screams in
protest, but there’s just something I love about a good, old-fashioned
newspaper. Besides, trees are a
renewable resource, right? And I bring
the newspaper to work to share with my co-workers.
Coffee Shop at Work
My employer operates an amazing on-site coffee shop. It’s better than Starbucks, but half the
price. And boy do I indulge! I did a calculation last week and despite it
being cheap, I spend 1/50th of my salary on coffee shop drinks at
work. Yipes!
Christmas Cards
Another dilemma for the forest, but in the end, I like snail
mail too much to give up on traditional Christmas cards. A mail box full of photo-cards from friends
and family is one of my favorite things about the holidays, and therefore I
send them, too.
Junky Holiday Candy
Fancy truffles, éclairs, gourmet dark chocolate bars…I could
take them or leave them. But put a bag
of Halloween candy corn in front of me and you’ll bring me to my knees. Same goes for chocolate-covered marshmallow
santas—or even better, yellow sugar-covered marshmallow chicks. I feel no guilt while binging on any one of
these items. They only come around once a year, after all.
Spoilers
I’m the girl who hides under a blanket during a horror movie
incessantly asking, “What’s going on now?”
Thanks to online spoilers, husband can enjoy his scary movies in
peace. It’s not just scary movies,
though. I search Twitter when TV shows
air on the east coast first. I flip
ahead in books. I even read book reviews
just to find out what happens next in a series.
Megan Just recently finished editing her second novel (new
adult genre) and is on the hunt for a literary agent. She lives in California with her husband and
toddler. Twitter: @meganjust
