I just dropped From One Moment to the Next (Moments of the Adept Universe 0.5) (aka Kandy 0.75) into the inboxes of my newsletter subscribers, and as promised, I actually remembered to start a discussion thread!
The short (2600k) is just a sweet (well, my version of sweet) glimpse into Kandy’s life. It is set between her leaving her first pack and the events of Dowser 1. And features two other reader fav characters.
Please assume that there are spoilers for the short, as well as any Kandy book, in the comments below.
Feel free to discuss among yourselves (I believe there is a follow comments button? So you can see if anyone replies, etc?).
I hope you enjoyed the read!!
Loved this!!! And anything that has to do with that whole universe. Kandy is the best, the perfect balance between funny and terror inducing haha! Thanks, that was much needed as I’m in-between books and looking for another to read.
Don’t think I am subscribed to the newsletter so I just filled out the application. Will I get the short story?
No. I sent it out about thirty minutes ago.

Loved the new Kandy short! I Remember Hudson from the very first Jade book I read! It is fun to make connections!
Absolutely wonderful. Kandy is one of my all time favorites and this peek into her past is just great. The connection to Hudson was a happy surprise. Reading this gave new me a new understanding of both Kandy’s and Desmond’s reactions I just loved it.
I’m so so glad!!
Ah Hudson, it was nice to read him again. This was a great short story. Thanks.
I love how the building of the adept world continues to grow and expand with each characters story. I LOVE KANDY!!!
Ahw Hudson, I don’t think I’ll ever forgive Megan for that particular death 💔 🤣 It’s great to learn more about Kandy, she’s one of my firm favourites. 🥰
Reading this part
“ Losing Hudson? After allowing myself to love him without self-imposed and pack-imposed barriers? That might actually break me.”
and knowing how it plays out later broke my heart all over again. I ached for Jade’s loss of Hudson but learning of how deeply Kandy cared for Hudson makes his death even more painful.
I got the discussion thread, but not the newsletter. How do I read it?
If you aren’t subscribed to the newsletter then there is no way for you to get it. As mentioned in this post. And also mentioned in the blog post about the newsletter yesterday.
I finally found it. Thank you for all you do. It somehow combined with the discussion thread, I had to search your name and it brought up both emails.
You books are wonderful, I await each one, knowing that I won’t be disappointed! I hope your headaches get better soon!
Oh my goodness gracious – you are truly gifted MCD! So much packed into those 2600 words. It was a piece of art. Thank you so much!
Glad you enjoyed it. Kandy is always fun to write. No game playing. 😊
I’ve always wanted Jade to say something like Kandy isn’t the sister of my blood but she’s my sister of My Heart.
Mainly because I love the relationship between Jade and Kandy, knowing that each would give up their lives to save the other.
Ohhhh…now I’m crying. Thank you, Meghan. This explains emotions felt in Dowser 1. These shorts give me insight as to why Kandy takes everything one moment to the next. If you don’t go deep, it doesn’t hurt as much. Stay safe for Kandy, Jade. It would break her beyond repair.
Is “Kandy’s book (Misfits 2)” finished or did I miss it?
Only partial written and not in my immediate queue to finish. 😁
