Most people go their entire lives without ever being truly seen.

I was one of them.

Just a Nobody is a raw, unfiltered look at a life shaped by love, loss, mistakes, and the moments that never quite let you go. The kind you replay in your head years later, wondering what you could’ve done differently.

It’s about what happens when life doesn’t turn out the way you planned, and you have to keep going anyway. It’s about family, faith, regret, loyalty… and the quiet battles no one else ever sees.

If you’ve ever felt overlooked…
If you’ve ever loved someone you never truly got over…
If you’ve ever wondered if your story even mattered…

Then maybe… you’re not alone. Free on Kindle.

Longlisted for the 2025 PEN/Hemingway Award for Debut Novel and Named to Kirkus Reviews’ Best Books of 2024. A tale of high schoolers and their coach creating a basketball team that may save them in ways therapy and medication can’t. Free on Kindle.

How Hot It Be In Hell descends into the hidden impulses people try to outrun—jealousy, obsession, violence, desire, and the quiet urges that twist a life off course. Each poem opens a door into a different human fracture: a lover’s fatal rage, a predator’s watchful hunger, a drunk stumbling toward chaos, a homeless man recounting the slow collapse of everything he held dear. Even the act of writing becomes a reckoning with the shadows that shape meaning, rendered through Drummond’s surreal imagery and genre?bending voice.

As the collection deepens, the tone grows darker, more unflinching, until the final poem, HOT FIRE, tears past individual sins and imagines hell itself breaking loose upon the earth. Drummond blends romance, horror, mystery, and lyrical experimentation into a haunting exploration of how easily humanity slips toward ruin. The result is a compelling, fire?lit journey for readers drawn to poetry that stares directly into darkness and refuses to look away. Free on Kindle.

“Gripping” – Kirkus Reviews

Based on true accounts of children’s penal colonies that emerged during the 1990s post-Soviet chaos, Going to Zossen is a raw exploration of the bargains ordinary people make under oppressive systems – necessary reading for fans of Claire Keegan’s Small Things Like These and Colson Whitehead’s The Nickel Boys.

The year is 1993. In a collapsing post-Soviet mining town, a former serviceman, Vasily Mikhailovich, accepts work as the director of a remote juvenile prison colony. Determined to bring order and empathy to a brutal system, he starts a rehabilitation program for the young boys. But he is soon thwarted by the corruption around him; as he watches the people nearby prosper through deceit and cruelty, he is forced to make a choice: to uphold his principles and risk everything, or surrender them to save his family.

Going to Zossen achieves almost surgical precision in its depiction of the brutal wave of mass child homelessness that swept through Russia after the fall of the USSR – a collapse that produced up to four million “street children,” the quickest deterioration of living standards to happen in any country during peacetime.
