Six Sentence Sunday blog - In the Name of Research

Research is essential if we want to give our work teeth. There will always be readers who are well versed in subjects we touch on and we have to be careful to ensure accuracy.
So how far would we go? There are times when we all have to step out of our comfort zone in the name of research. The most uncomfortable thing I have done is to visit a funeral parlour. To read more go to

I might have to brace myself for that kind of research. Interesting again.

MEGAN'S BIO
My first book to be published was a children's story, but mostly I write romance/ women's fiction.
In 'The Path of Innocence', my aim was to write a contemporary romance for women who understand that life is not clear-cut, that love exists in different forms, sometimes contradictory.
My current project, 'A Shore of Secrets' is another contemporary romance based in the Veneto region of Italy, a region I find inherently romantic.
Recently, I had two short stories published in the exciting new Alternative Read Anthology where we were given carte blanche to write what we liked! In it, I remain true to the theme of complex women, but with some quirky twists.
I live in a pretty village in the Essex countryside, UK, having 'escaped' from London several years ago. We are now empty-nesters apart from an adorable, but incurably mischievous Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.

Who are the Writers on the Wrong Side of the Road?

They are the most dangerous rule-wreckers from Alternative-Read.com.

The editor and publisher, Clayton C. Bye, is a business consultant, the owner of Chase Enterprises, and a writer. As well as fiction writing, he has written many non-fiction books.

Clayton says of the anthology, 'It is all about studying people in difficult situations, something every good writer loves to do. But the defining difference in our collection (18 stories by 15 authors) is that each writer was challenged to write a short story which would provide their readers with something beyond the norm, something truly different. Then we took away the rules and let them write whatever the hell they liked.
