Welcome to Musingly Along
Megan Valente
STORYTELLER & ACTIVIST
Hi I’m Megan, a London-based storyteller and activist. You can usually find me at a coffee shop drafting radical op-eds about the war economy or working on my latest novel. If I’m not there, I’m probably off on some strange adventure or wandering aimlessly in an unknown location. Don’t worry, I’ll make it home eventually.
My favorite things: perfectly worded sentences, candles, the color red, hot coffee on cold mornings with way-too-much sugar, daunting introspection, window seats, revolutionary optimism, raw live music, & bleeding-heart people.
Peace & liberation for all!
