Meghan Thompson – Senior Contributor & Copy-Editor

After sampling five careers in five cities in just over five years, Meghan Thompson, a graduate of Cornell University, built a wealth of knowledge about what she does not want to do with her life (including politics, banking, communications and PR). At last, she is doing what she does want to do (writing) where she wants to do it (in England) with the support of her husband, the amazing “rugby bloke” and their incredible son, “Sir Grinsalot,” who joined them in October 2009. Meghan has just completed her first novel, Mavornia Resurrected.

Popular RM features by Meghan include: Intellectual Stimulation? There’s an App for that! & A Coach for the Biggest Game of All
