Support; the Secret to a Writer’s Survival Support; the Secret to a Writer’s Survival By Megan Cutler | April 25, 2016 | Comments 1 comment Sometimes, writing feels like the worst, most thankless task in the world. It never fails; on the heels of my greatest high – finishing my first trilogy – follows the rollercoaster plunge toward my greatest low. Why did I bother to spend the last five years on this project? Who is going to read it? … Read More Read More

Coming Soon – Sea of Twisted Souls Coming Soon – Sea of Twisted Souls By Megan Cutler | March 21, 2016 | Comments 1 comment On April 10th, my husband and I will be attending an Iron Maiden concert. (What!) It’s the first time we’ve bought big tickets for ourselves.

Celebrate Your Success Celebrate Your Success By Megan Cutler | October 19, 2015 | Comments 1 comment The life of a writer is not for the faint of heart. Every profession has its up and downs but, I think, those related to artistic professions are particularly poignant. I’ve never met another writer who didn’t question if they should give up. I’ve never met another writer that claimed with absolute confidence their work … Read More Read More
Killing Your Darlings Killing Your Darlings By Megan Cutler | September 7, 2015 | Comments 1 comment I’ve never enjoyed editing my work (though I have come to love the end result). Don’t get me wrong; editing is a necessary evil. No writer can form perfect prose the first time around. But editing takes much more effort for me than writing. It inevitably ends up a slog. And for a long time, … Read More Read More
The Setting as a Character The Setting as a Character By Megan Cutler | May 18, 2015 | Comments 0 Comment One characteristic of epic fantasy is the scale of its setting. Epic tales take place in vast worlds, full of interesting cities, cultures and landmarks. Somehow, the characters become aware of these details throughout their adventure and it becomes clear that the world is active even when the characters aren’t present. Rebellions may take place … Read More Read More

Character Introduction: The Sorcerer Character Introduction: The Sorcerer By Megan Cutler | April 20, 2015 | Comments 1 comment A few weeks ago, I reminisced about the creation of Island of Lost Forevers‘s leading lady, Catilen Taylor. Every protagonist needs at least one plucky companion, don’t they? We originally considered Catilen’s closest friend (and fellow kook), Damian Cooke, the story’s main character. Until we realized the character most impacted by the book’s events, the … Read More Read More
Coming Soon – Crossroads of Frozen Eternity Coming Soon – Crossroads of Frozen Eternity By Megan Cutler | April 6, 2015 | Comments 3 comments Just shy of a year ago, I announced the publication of my first novel Island of Lost Forevers. Real life has presented some real challenges since then (such as moving across an ocean and a continent), but I’m finally ready to share my novel’s sequel with you. In fact, the book’s release will coincide with … Read More Read More
