Who Should I Be Today? Who Should I Be Today? By Megan Cutler | May 11, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment This is something of a call-back to the first prompt I ever wrote (which starts with the same line). I thought it would make an interesting juxtaposition since Cazella and Silkfoot achieve basically the same thing via two drastically different methods. Cazella makes herself into the person she thinks others want her to be by … Read More Read More
Top Six Prompts from the Second Year Top Six Prompts from the Second Year By Megan Cutler | March 9, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment On the 31st of July, 2015, I posted my first ever writing prompt. It kicked off a weekly tradition of taking time to write for myself, for fun, for practice and for personal development. Since I don’t write them every week, it has taken me two and a half years to get through two years … Read More Read More
Like a Ghost Like a Ghost By Megan Cutler | February 9, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment It’s been awhile since we heard from Silkfoot. I thought we should fix that. . . . Thomas Valladon knew something was off the moment he opened the door. It was a stormy night, the rain so heavy it bounced several inches off every surface it collided with. Thunder rumbled in the distance, threatening to … Read More Read More
Eighth Time Lucky; A Tale of Diligence Eighth Time Lucky; A Tale of Diligence By Megan Cutler | October 27, 2017 | Comments 0 Comment I’ve done two rounds of Seven Deadly Sins prompts, mostly because I have such a large pool of characters to draw from. While flipping through other prompt suggestions, I happened to find a list of the Seven Heavenly Virtues (which seem to get a lot less press). In case you’ve never heard of them, they … Read More Read More

The Ultimate Key; a Tale of Greed The Ultimate Key; a Tale of Greed By Megan Cutler | February 10, 2017 | Comments 1 comment Of all the queen’s treasures, it was to the simple silver key she wore around her neck that Silkfoot’s eyes were continuously drawn. It was too plain to have been intended as a decoration, too ordinary to suit the fantastic nature of the woman who wore it. But he dared not ask about the adornment, … Read More Read More
Inside the Mind of Pirate Inside the Mind of Pirate By Megan Cutler | January 30, 2017 | Comments 0 Comment It’s been awhile since I did one of these. Awhile back I talked about questions that will better help you connect with your characters. I then answered those questions with several of my characters (Domerin, Catilen, and Zita). I always meant to do more of these and I thought it might be fun to get … Read More Read More
Farewell 2016 Farewell 2016 By Megan Cutler | December 19, 2016 | Comments 0 Comment Part of me can’t believe it’s time to write my Christmas Hiatus post already; the part of me that’s still back in February, fresh back from watching Deadpool, before the year got super crazy. The rest of me is ready to get off the wild ride that 2016 has been and is hoping that next … Read More Read More
Truth is a Variable State Truth is a Variable State By Megan Cutler | December 12, 2016 | Comments 0 Comment I enjoy taking the time to introduce my worlds and characters here. It inevitably reminds me of characters I haven’t been paying enough attention to. So I’m pleased to mention one of my most amusing and entertaining characters; Silkfoot. It may seem like he often slips through the cracks, but it’s more that he likes … Read More Read More
A Modern Fantasy Setting A Modern Fantasy Setting By Megan Cutler | November 14, 2016 | Comments 6 comments I’ve always been intrigued by the idea of a fantasy world that made it to modern times. Not quite the same as urban fantasy, which tends to be our world with magical elements tossed in. More like a high fantasy world whose ancient empires never fell. A world where it makes sense for a warrior … Read More Read More
