Welcome to the home of Megan Cutler, author of the Mystical Island Trilogy and the Eternity's Empire series. I write science fiction, fantasy, and many of their sub-genres. Here you can find information about the various people who live in my head and the diverse worlds they inhabit. You can also find news about my latest work, plus short stories and free samples. I blog on Mondays and release new short fiction every Friday. (I sleep when my characters let me.) If you have read my work, I would love to hear from you! Read More »
