Last Chance – A Random Picture Prompt Last Chance – A Random Picture Prompt By Megan Cutler | May 4, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment Earlier this year, I decided to base several random scenes on pictures I found while browsing stock photo sites. (Indie authors spend a lot of time browsing stock photo sites). This is only my second attempt. I’m not sure it turned out as well as the first one, but I am intrigued by the concept. … Read More Read More
Never Say Never and Other Bad Advice Never Say Never and Other Bad Advice By Megan Cutler | April 30, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment I spend a lot of time reading writing advice. It’s useful to know how other writers solve certain problems; they often think of solutions I don’t. I have an entire tumblr tag of writing advice I find useful and I share its contents whenever I find a writer struggling with similar problems. But I’ve stumbled … Read More Read More
Robin is Really Smart Robin is Really Smart By Megan Cutler | April 27, 2018 | Comments 1 comment This was a random sequence that popped into my head one day and stuck around. Sometimes these are my favorite kind of scenes to write. This may not be a defining moment in Domerin’s life, nor even in Robin’s, but it is certainly one that Domerin lingers over when he thinks of his experience with … Read More Read More
Doing Everything Right – A Tea Tasting Adventure Doing Everything Right – A Tea Tasting Adventure By Megan Cutler | April 23, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment The David’s Tea Summer Collection I received for my birthday last year had a bonus attached to it; a coupon for 25% off tea purchases until the end of July. I’m always on the lookout for new teas and this seemed the perfect opportunity to find my next staple. Especially since I had just started … Read More Read More
Lady of the Night Lady of the Night By Megan Cutler | April 20, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment This is another of those describe your characters twice exercises. (Once to fall in love and once to be repulsed.) I did this one a little different than the last one, writing it from the character’s perspective (once where she is loved and once where she is repulsed). I’m not sure it worked as well, … Read More Read More
How To Make and Maintain a Digital Bullet Journal How To Make and Maintain a Digital Bullet Journal By Megan Cutler | April 16, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment About midway through 2017 I realized I had let my life get out of control. I worked too hard. I neglected my physical and mental health. And realizing I needed to change was only the start of the battle. Because I had no idea how to manage all the things I felt I needed to … Read More Read More
There Are Things You Can’t Escape – Part 3 There Are Things You Can’t Escape – Part 3 By Megan Cutler | April 13, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment It’s been a bit of a wait for the end of this one (sorry)! But I have finally finished it. Part 4 will follow in a few weeks, but I think this is by far my favorite piece of the story. It came to me in the shower one morning, demanding to be written, and … Read More Read More
The Moon God’s Quarrel – Eternity’s Empire Chapter 12 The Moon God’s Quarrel – Eternity’s Empire Chapter 12 By Megan Cutler | April 9, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment When I released Chapter 11 of Eternity’s Empire, I gave my readers and newsletter subscribers a hint as to whose past they could expect to pop up next. As promised, it’s Amaterasu! I will admit, in terms of mythology, I don’t know a lot more about Japanese myths than I do about Hindu myths. But … Read More Read More
Choose – A Random Picture Prompt Choose – A Random Picture Prompt By Megan Cutler | April 6, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment Early this year, I realized I had let Domerin run rampant with a lot of these prompts (sorry about that). They were originally designed to be writing exercises, and I think a lot of them have strayed from that purpose. Which is fine, but I wanted to get back to challenging myself on that level. … Read More Read More
Tastes of Desert Sage Natural Teas and Dodger Coffee Tastes of Desert Sage Natural Teas and Dodger Coffee By Megan Cutler | April 2, 2018 | Comments 2 comments I love supporting small businesses. They put so much love and passion into their products, I generally find them worth any extra expense. Unfortunately, living in Canada makes this difficult. Small businesses often have trouble negotiating international shipping rates. When you add the exchange rate on top of that, delivering to Canada can more than … Read More Read More
