After being determined to blog more this year I am, naturally, doing a terrible job of it, alas. So this post is about six weeks late. Ahem. At the end of February my Short Trip and Big Finish’s first Twelfth Doctor, The Astrea Conspiracy, was released. Here’s the blurb: The conspirators sit in Antwerp,…
As well as lovely new Doctor Who this weekend I also had some personally exciting and cool Doctor Who news: I've written a Short Trip for Big Finish, and it's also the first 12th Doctor Big Finish story.

No, it's not the Doctor Who post in a vaguely timely fashion. I shall get to that about two hours beofre tomorrow's ep, probably. Still, I've now at least seen last week's ep. (One and five sixths thumbs up.) But, anyway, here are some VAGUELY RECENT podcast things I have been doing that I record…
