The Diary of River Song – New Recruit and other Big Finish updates

In keeping with tradition, I update the blog a smidgen later than I mean to re exciting new work things. So, to catch up, everything is going in this post. First, the new River Song series has just been released. It's set in Season 7 of classic Who, and River Song joins Liz and the…

River Song Series 9 Trailer, Cover and Cast!

The trailer for Series 9 of River Song has just come out. Along with a beautiful cover and details about the cast, and the handy ability to pre-order it on the Big Finish website. And it looks and sounds magnificent! In the new series, River Song joins Liz Shaw and the Brig at UNIT to…

The Grey Man of the Mountain is out!

Now if you are a BIg Finish fan, you might think "But that release came out months ago." Which is true. But the sentence is still correct, just horribly untimely. I would like to blame Covid. Anyway, my one (and only) contribution to the main range of Big Finish Doctor Who came out in December.…

Oh No December

I intended to make another attempt to do a post a day in December. Last year was unsuccessful but, hey, I tried. ALAS, it is 2020, so I missed the fact that December started yesterday. Well done me. This year, well, everyone knows about this year. It started in March, lasted approximately three decades, and…

River Song Abbey of Heretics

I got to flail on Twitter a bit yesterday as it was announced that I've written a tale for season 7 of The Diary of River Song. It still feels a little bit unreal. River is one of my most beloved Doctor Who characters, I adore every moment of her, and The Husbands of River…

The Twelfth Doctor Chronicles!

A few weeks ago (I know, I'm timely as ever, ahem) Big Finish released the news that there are to be 12th Doctor Chronicles, and the first volume will be released in February 2020. And I wrote one! Which was a bit exciting, both because it's my beloved 12th Doctor, and because it was cool…

The Astrea Conspiracy is out!

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,…

I’ve Written the First Big Finish 12th Doctor Story!

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. Which I didn't, thank goodness, actually know when I was writing it. That would have been rather…
