Welcome to the official site of India Drummond – urban fantasy, sci-fi, and romance author. Ordinary Angels, her debut novel, comes out April 2011!
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... 
The dumbest stuff I see on the Internet and TV is obviously created by people with too much time on their hands and no real problems (or in the case of TV, people who think you have too much time on your hands). For example, who wants to watch shows about “The Boy With A Tumor For A Face” (real show, btw) or people whose houses are dirtier than one would have thought possible. (Okay, I do crack...
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... 
When reading the story of a couple in Harriman, Tennessee today, I was struck by one thing. Wait. That’s a lie. By about four things, but the point of today’s Quick Tip is only one of them.
According to the Metro: “Officers responded to a call reporting a man on fire in Harriman, Tennessee on Tuesday, only to discover the couple severely burned and, apparently, drunk. The 62-year-old... 
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... 
I’m not Lara Croft. Nor Trinity (from the Matrix). I wouldn’t mind being Michelle Obama although my fantasy-me is more Amelia Earhart. I’m none of these. I’m somewhere, in reality, between crazy cat-lady and Mr Bean… with a laptop.
I came face to face with this reality when researching alternate (to plane travel) methods to get to the US from here. There are options, as it... 
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.
