I’ve needed a drink for like 3 hours but I’m too lazy to get up and cross the room.
Is it not enough that our names are nearly the same? Must we be the same in personal laziness and lack of motivation too?
I think we’ve found the plot for our film. It’s just us, sitting around and slowly dehydrating/starving to death because we’re too lazy to move.

cloama asked: Hey, I'm so sorry I didn't talk to you more at the roundtable. I was honestly exhausted. I wanted to ask you about your writing. Don't worry I'll be stalking you later. btw, my fanspace is over at TeaAndSolitude.

That’s because I’m going. And I can’t “like” from my fandom blog URL. I’m also megg33k. We should totally meet. Message me to make this possible.

What do you guys want to read in your original...
megg33k:
Call it market research. Call it morbid curiosity. Call it what you like. Just help an author out!
Also, what sort of marketing appeals to you?
It’s an important question that needs honest answers. ♥

You meet Stephen Hawking. Plot twist: he asks you,...
Why? WHY? Why the hell not? What else if not this? What exactly is the alternative? Death? What is inherently better about nothing rather than something? And this is something… it is! No one is ever doing nothing. At any given moment, my heart is beating, my lungs are expanding with each breath, blood courses through my veins. My brain is active, neurons firing at an alarming rate. I’m using...

You find a suicide note dated 6 months ago from...
If I found a suicide note, it would probably be my bestie’s…
I drive to his house, trembling with anger, the tear-soaked note in my hand, and take a deep breath before I knock. He answers, alive and well, and the rage starts to drain away from me. While the note is a reminder that he considered leaving me, his living, breathing form is the best reminder that he chose to stay. I wrap my arms...

As a writer, my dream come true would be…
I want to be known for my writing and everything that comes with that recognition. I want people to interrupt me at dinner for autographs. I want to miss my husband, friends, and family when I’m off on a book tour. I want to receive hate mail. I want to affect people… kill their favourite character, make the wrong couple canon, have readers who find symbolism that isn’t there and read into all the...

The number one goal I want to achieve as a writer...
Something I’ve already achieved and continue achieving every day. I want to share my words and stories with the world. I want people to know my characters and learn about their lives. I want to make people laugh and cry and smile and rage. I’ve done those things, but I must strive to keep doing them. I must never let myself fear ridicule or scorn. I have to keep making myself available and opening...

I’m going to start posting my journaling on here as well as writing it in the journal. If you’re not interested in reading those posts, feel free to block the tag #meggjournals. I will be sure to tag each post with that specific tag. If you do choose to read them, then thanks. Some might even be mildly interesting… maybe! :)
First 5 posts are coming up in a second. ♥

The rewrite is more extensive than I’d planned, but the story isn’t changing… just the execution. Doing what I can to give you the best possible product. These characters are my babies,and I must do right by them! ♥

A Fairy Tale - Part 1
megg33k:
Chapter 1: And You’d Like Me to Steal One for You?
Part 1 of 2
Once upon a time, in the magical, ancient world of modern day Chicagoland, there stood a magnificent castle in the Kingdom of Moreng. The sun shone brightly, the birds chirped, and the kingdom’s subjects happily went about their normal, everyday lives. From a distance, the traditional grey stone castle stood stoic and looked...

2012 NaNoWriMo Pep Talks by Megan L. Eli
megan-eli:
Oct 31: Happy NaNo Eve
The countdown has begun, ladies and lords! It’s almost time. Creative energy is swirling, and you’re either feeling totally unprepared or anxious to get started. I’m actually some strange combination of the two! Either way… IT ALL BEGINS AT MIDNIGHT!
This is a year of winners. If you want to win, I want to do whatever I can to help make that dream a reality!...

beautifullyheeled asked: Evening! Maddening day, but just wanted to thank you for the pep talk about my char voice and listening. I'm also going to stop editing and just write; I think I am being way over critical. Maybe not having my pc today an tomorrow will help me outline and get clarity. Thanks a mil Meg! ~Diann

Dialogue samples for my dialogue workshop are...
So, I’m an ML for Peoria’s NaNoWriMo this year… 2nd year of NaNo, 1st year at being ML! O.O
Anyway, I’ve sort of been crowned the Dialogue Queen, and several people asked me to do a workshop to help them improve their dialogue writing. I gave them 3 prompts so they could bring me some sort of sample, but I wrote for each prompt as well… just to be a good sport about...

We're in the final 24 hour push of my free eBook...
Despite my UK numbers having ceased to update about 36hrs ago, I feel it’s safe to say at least 700 new copies have been downloaded in the last 48 hours! I still don’t know how to wrap my mind around that, to be honest. But this is very exciting for me… So, thank you all for your support.
If you haven’t gotten your copy, go get it while it’s free!

Do you like books? How about FREE books?
megan-eli:
I’m running a promotion this weekend (Sat, Sept 1-Mon, Sept 3) in which my book will be available on Kindle for FREE! Yes, 100% off… free… no cost! The goal is to boost readership, move it up the ranks of Amazon, and maybe (if I’m lucky) even get people talking about it! Public visibility is far more important than making money right now! :) So, if you or anyone you know has a Kindle...
