WAG Topic #28: “The Little Things”. Sometimes a small, unexpected thing has the power to affect big changes. This week write about something simple: a little thing that has the power to cause a big change in events, mood, or decisions. It can be an... 
As more of my friends are getting published, I’ve become aware that I haven’t been a very good writer-friend! I never knew it, and they were too polite to let me know what more I could have been doing. Sure, I’ve been buying books from folks I’ve met on Twitter, blogs, and Facebook. Buying books is great, but there is more we can do, and now that I know, I thought I’d share it...

WAG Topic #26: “Liar, Liar”. Everybody lies. Evil characters and even good ones do it too. For us, it’s a fantastic source of conflict. So this week, consider deception. Your piece can be fiction or non-fiction based on observation or... 
I ended up having a great writing weekend, although it did leave me a bit brain-dead. I didn’t end up doing the official Write Your Ass Off social activity, mostly because I was so much in the zone that I didn’t want to socialise, I just wanted to write.
Then first thing Monday morning, I got an email from the editor I’ll be working with on Ordinary Angels. Oh boy… lots of... 
I’ve been horribly slack this week about visiting blogs, I know! I keep hoping to have time to catch up, but between having a sick teenager at the beginning of the week and making a major breakthrough on my storyline for Wildings, I really haven’t taken much time at all to socialise. (Ahh, Twitter… I miss you!) I do hope to get back on track with my bloggy friends very soon!
Today will be... 
I’ve thought about writing some shorter works lately, but realised that it’s been a very long time, and I think I might have lost my touch. I haven’t really tried to do much in the way of short stories since university. It seems that all of my story ideas feel like they would take 250 pages to tell.
So it seemed perfect timing when Sally over at THE ELEPHANT IN THE WRITING ROOM...

WAG Topic #26: “Fish out of Water”. Sometimes it’s easy to tell when someone is out of their element. It can be their clothing, their manner, what they’re carrying with them… so many things give them away. This week, observe (or... 
This post is part of the Writing Adventure Group topic: Crimes and Misdemeanours.
My hair is now eight inches longer than it was in the profile pictures I use online, and I recently decided I needed bangs.
“Why didn’t you just go to the hairdresser?” a Certain Highlander asked me while observing the results of my “learned-it-on-YouTube” self-trim. A man in a novel would have... 
Some of you eagle-eyed readers have noticed I added word count meters to the My Fiction page to the blog. (I love word count meters. I can’t explain it. It’s akin to my love of office supplies somehow.) What you might not have noticed is that the status on my paranormal novel Ordinary Angels has gone from “Complete and looking for a home” to “Complete!”
That’s...

WAG Topic #25: “Crimes and Misdemeanours”. We all break rules from time to time (just look at past WAG posts to see evidence of that!) and our characters usually have to do that in order to experience change and growth and to add a little spice and... 
I'm a lot of other things, but mostly I'm a writer. I like books with fast action, scary killers, fantasy worlds, and smutty sex. Maybe even all four at once. My novel Ordinary Angels debuts from Lyrical Press in April 2011. To read about my other projects, click the My Fiction page. To get in touch with me, click Contact India and send me an email.
