Welcome to the official site of India Drummond – urban fantasy, sci-fi, and romance author. Ordinary Angels, her debut novel, comes out April 2011!
Last week we had a great turnout for WAG #21. I hope you’ll take a moment to go read and comment on the posts. I love seeing how everyone interprets the topic. We are a bunch of theme-bending rule-breakers (As I said to my new friend Ms Onion just yesterday on Twitter)! I love it.
WAG #22: “A Real Hero”. In fiction, often every hero looks like the other, with broad shoulders and a... 
She mumbled, then realising her mistake, she leaned forward, colliding with the microphone. The thud made everyone wince.
“Sorry. sorry,” she said.
“Could we get on with this?”
“Yes, sorry.” She scrambled with her notes. “Umm. Everything is going to be all right.”
Silence.
“That’s it?”
“Umm, yes,” she said.
“Look. I know... 
I have to admit I squeed a little bit when I saw that Summer had posted this picture on her blog for the product AquaNotes. (If you’re reading in a reader, via email, or mobile you’ll want to click through to see the photo, so what I’m saying makes sense.) But it all seems very space-age, doesn’t it? Like pens in space! Wooo… waterproof paper!
I get a lot of story ideas in the...
This week I’m trying a new method of doing the WAG links, so please read all the instructions carefully, even if you’ve done many WAGs before!
“WAG #21: Message in a Bottle” It’s part of human nature that we sometimes wish we could communicate with our younger selves, our unreasonable selves, our subconscious selves, our self-destructive selves, our more innocent selves, or any number...
We had some wonderful creative pieces for this week’s Writing Adventure Group! I hope you’ll take the time to visit all of the writers listed here and leave a comment on their pieces. Well done, everyone!
The theme for the Writing Adventure Group #20 was “ The First Time” Think of an activity (either of your own or something you observe of someone else) and write about the first time of ... 
YA fiction. Young Adult. I hadn’t even heard of it two years ago. Back then Bear was 13, and I’d started giving him Robert Jordon and Raymond Feist from my own book shelves, not even realising there was a middle step in there. He found some of it at the school library, but even then I didn’t pay much mind. I was just happy he was reading for pleasure.
Then around the time I started... 
This week’s Writing Adventure Group instructions were: “WAG #20: The First Time” Think of an activity (either of your own or something you observe of someone else) and write about the first time of that experience, and perhaps even compare it to subsequent experiences.
If you’d like to write a WAG of your own, there’s still time! All writers and bloggers welcome to...
I was chatting on Facebook with WAGger and friend Sue O’Shields about how we can identify our group on Twitter. I’d thought about this before, but in the very beginning of WAG (The Writing Adventure Group), not as many participants were even on Twitter. Now most of us seem to be!
Sue and I looked at using the hashtag #WAG. It seems a few others are using it, but honestly I can’t tell... 
WAG #19 Results and WAG #20 instructions below. All are welcome to join next week’s adventure!
The theme for the Writing Adventure Group 19 was “Pick a Pocket”: Pick someone out of a crowd and describe what (you imagine) is in their pockets (Unless you want to be brave and ask them!) Give us both meaning and physical details, and don’t forget to let yourself be surprised.
For those who... 
The writing prompt for this weeks WAG was:
“WAG #19: Pick a Pocket” Let’s do some stalking people-watching for this one! Pick someone out of a crowd and describe what (you imagine) is in their pockets (Unless you want to be brave and ask them!) Give us both meaning and physical details, and don’t forget to let yourself be surprised. (This week’s topic inspired by my son ... 
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.
