Author Details

Meaghan Argueta is a former English teacher whose love for the written word had not wavered. She has been writing for years, and most recently, she has been working on a "southern style" cookbook. As an amateur chef as well as dog mom, Meaghan keeps busy, and she would not have it any other way.

Industry Focus

Meaghan is a feature and list writer at MovieWeb. She got her start at the beginning of 2023. You will see throughout her writing that she loves holiday films, romantic comedies, upbeat and lighthearted TV shows, and surprisingly, horror movies with a touch of truth behind the plot. 

Favorite Media

Meaghan will rattle of a dozen different titles when you ask her to name her favorite movie or TV series. As of right now, in this very moment, she will confidently say that The Perks of Being a Wallflower is her favorite film. As the author, Stephen Chbosky, had a heavy hand in the production process, Meaghan believes it is one of the most wholesome coming-of-age films. The fact that she read the novel in a single day while in college because it was so well written (or because she was procrastinating) may have a bit of influence. 

As for TV shows, Meaghan keeps Friends, Gilmore Girls, and Grey's Anatomy on loop in her house. She says the world is filled with too much chaos, so winding down with something comforting and lighthearted is a must in this day and age.
