Doctor Who, SFF, history, and other things I think about far too much
March has gone on a bit and not been my easiest month, not helped by some marvellously dreich weather, but we're about to tip over into April, where some smashing things I've written will be released, so that's quite cheering.

And I’m still a little shocked that no-one objected to my first title suggestion, which I almost meant as a joke, but not quite: Capture the Chronovore!…
