A Night with the Master of Assassins A Night with the Master of Assassins By Megan Cutler | July 27, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment I know that, once again, the last scene technically centered around Domerin. But when the muse speaks… This scene, like some of the others I’ve written, fills a gap in a story I worked on with my writing partner. Whenever only one of us has characters ‘on screen’ we tend to skip to the next … Read More Read More
The Chosen One The Chosen One By Megan Cutler | July 6, 2018 | Comments 1 comment This was another one of those scenes that popped into my head and demanded to be written in short order. This time it was inspired by a song, specifically Lightning Crashes by Live. If you’re familiar with the song, you’ll probably be able to pick out the elements it inspired. (And yes, I did listen … Read More Read More
She is Known She is Known By Megan Cutler | June 22, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment This is my final (for now) attempt at a describe your character twice (once to fall in love and once to be repelled). I went back to writing from a different character’s perspective because I thought it worked better. I actually think this might be the weakest of the three (odd since you’d think I’d … Read More Read More
Do What the Witch Tells You Do What the Witch Tells You By Megan Cutler | June 8, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment This is actually a direct sequel to the scene I wrote for I Trust Your Judgement, and has been on my list for a long time. (It also technically breaks my rule about only writing one Domerin scene in five, but the last one wasn’t technically about Domerin so I went ahead and did it … Read More Read More
Why Is Your Father’s Arm on the Kitchen Table? Why Is Your Father’s Arm on the Kitchen Table? By Megan Cutler | June 1, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment Every now and then an idea pops into my head that strikes me as so brilliant it causes me to break my own rules. This is one such scene. I know I said I was going to tone down the amount of Domerin on this blog… but this scene just had to BE. For context, … Read More Read More
Domerin Gets His Own Tea! Domerin Gets His Own Tea! By Megan Cutler | May 14, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment Did you know Adagio Teas allows you to make your own fandom-based blends and share them with other tea lovers? When I first found out about their site, they actually pitched it to me this way; you can make teas based on your books and characters and your fans can purchase them. Isn’t that cool? … 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
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
Letters from Liara Letters from Liara By Megan Cutler | March 2, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment Awhile back, in response to the prompt I did the right thing, I wrote a little story about Domerin rescuing a teenage girl from a human trafficking ring, though the effort cost a fellow soldier his life. I really liked that little story. The more I thought about it, the more I thought he would … Read More Read More
Fuck Fuck By Megan Cutler | February 23, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment As I’ve mentioned several times, I participate in a monthly table top gaming group across skype. The game’s primary GM is really good at challenging me to do new things with my characters. Several months ago we started working on a behind-the-scenes incident with one of my characters so that certain things would be set … Read More Read More
