Hidden Depths, a new Ninth Doctor boxset starring Christopher Eccleston came out last month and I was lucky enough to write the first story on the set! It's available now on the Big Finish website. In my story, The Seas of Titan, the Doctor arrives on Saturn's most fascinating moon just as an incredible discovery…
Capture the Chronovore!
Master! Nemesis Express, the second Big Finish release featuring Eric Roberts’ Master was out last month, and I’m thrilled to have written the second story on the set. 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!…
Three new Doctor Who stories out!
Since I last wrote an update on lovely writing things, I've had a whole three audios out from Big Finish featuring various wonderful parts of the Whoniverse. The Outlaws, a First Doctor and Dodo adventure was out in April; Boundaries, a War!Master story was out at the beginning of June, and Peake Season, a whimsical…
Rosebud Is An Awesome Novella, a Professional Interview with Paul Cornell
Today's post is rather different to all the other posts I've made. For it has audio in it. The audio is a short interview with SFF writer Paul Cornell (that guy I do Hammer House of Podcast with) about his brilliant new novella, Rosebud. I had the chance to read an advanced copy and I…

Big Finish News Catch-Up
As ever, an incredibly untimely update on what I've written for Big Finish: Firstly, last week saw the release of the second Eighth of March boxset, Protectors of Time, which celebrates International Women's Day with three stories written, directed, and starring women. I wrote Stolen Futures, which has Romana and K-9 adventuring in E-Space just…
Gallifrey 2022
It's always so weird coming back from Gallifrey. It's only been a few days since I got home (or it was when I started writing this post *ahem*), but the convention seems like a whole other world. And re-entry into Real Life is tricky, and quite a hit emotionally. But it's always worth it. And…

The End of the Year.
I've been writing this post a lot in my head over the past few days. Partly because I very much wanted to mark the end of last year with some words and it wasn't until June that I finally accepted that wasn't going to happen. But surely if I *thought* about it enough, then that…
Bayban the Butcher from Big Finish; Hammer House of Podcast Christmas Special
A couple of lovely things have been released over the past few days. First up, the Blake's 7 Bayban the Butcher set from Big Finish (that's a lot of bs....by which I mean b plural, not an abbreviation of bullshit) is out! Three stories featuring the very best of Blake's 7 guest characters, Bayban, played…

Top 5 Underrated Doctor Who Companions
With so many Doctor Who companions, some are bound to be given more love and attention than others. Sometimes this occurs correctly because, yes, they are that awesome (*cough*Barbara*cough*) and sometimes it makes you tut your head sadly (...I shall be diplomatic and name no-one). And sometimes you're simply overcome with woe that truly great…
