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.

Lord Shiva’s Task – Eternity’s Empire Chapter 11 Lord Shiva’s Task – Eternity’s Empire Chapter 11 By Megan Cutler | February 12, 2018 | Comments 5 comments I’ve always adored mythology.

Don’t Allow Fear to Influence Your Story Don’t Allow Fear to Influence Your Story By Megan Cutler | December 11, 2017 | Comments 0 Comment I’ve noticed a disturbing trend among video game plots lately. Writers start down a path, digging their fingers into the dirt and grime of untouched territory, only to pull back at the last moment. What starts as a journey toward an unconventional ending always ends the same; safely, with the outcome everyone expects. It’s frustrating. … Read More Read More
