That's really true J-WO. People are getting increasingly interested in breaking out of the orthodox practices here in India. BTW, what does your name stand for??

Re: Where in the world are you from?

Originally i misunderstood this thread. Where you are from and where you are located are very different things.

I voted for Africa despite I live in Sweden :P

Erm, not really. Its for-

Not very exciting, but there you have it.

And I think what you say is true. Big changes seem to be happening in India and the fiction will reflect that. I believe we're due a golden age of SF and Fantasy from that part of the world soon enough. Though, at present, I wouldn't know where to begin in terms of finding the good stuff.

Born in New Mexico, raised in California, lived in Europe and the Middle East, returned to Arizona, now live in Washington State. I think I've finally found a home, although Australia still beckons.

Re: Where in the world are you from?

From the Northern part of Sweden originally, but have lived in the UK for about 5 years now and have no intention of moving back to Sweden.

So much more of -everything- in the UK :P

Re: Where in the world are you from?

I live in France in the Dordogne in an isolated spot on a wooded hillside. A writer's paradise ... when the wood stove is working. It was minus six recently for a few nights! Also lived fifteen years in British Columbia, Canada. Born in Bedford, England, and lived a chunk in Oxfordshire and a chunk in Cambridgeshire.
