I meant to do ages ago and forget, brilliantly, but here is this year's post sharing what stuff I made last year that can be nominated for things, should you be so inclined: Companion Piece edited by myself and Liz Barr, is eligible in the Best Related Work category of the Hugos. This is a…

Top 10 Tips for Being a Doctor Who Companion
I just watched the latest edition of the Doctor Who Fan Show, Tops Tips for Being a Companion, which made me Slightly Irate. For there were a bunch of lazy jokes about old skool Who costumes, ankle-twisting, and screaming. As jokes go about old telly, these are bleh; as jokes go on the official BBC…

HamilWho
Hello, lovely people! I spent an hour or so of today engaged on a terrible enterprise. Hamilton, that wildly successful musical (I say, just in case you don't know what the dickens I'm on about), has been mashed up with all sorts of other fandoms in all sorts of ways because Hamilton is kind of…
Verity! Episode 105 Chatty Daleks
Good evening, delicious readers! It's a Wednesday, and that means shiny new Verity!. This week it's a chat about the second ever story, The Daleks. And I'm on thanks to it being Kat's turn to come down with some rotten flu-like thing. We were also recording in early morning time for me, but I'm absolutely…
My Ambassadors of Death
Realised this morning that though I've mentioned it a couple of times, I don't have a proper official omg-it's-out-yay! post for my recently released book on The Ambassadors of Death: Ambassadors, if you don't know, is a classic Doctor Who story, made in 1970, and is one of my very favourite of all Who goodness.…
Gallifrey 2016
In a few minutes I'm starting the first leg of my epic journey to Gallifrey One. It's particularly epic this year as thanks to a major bridge being out for at least the next month, and a change in airport, it's become rather more complicated. I would be worried except I actually know where stuff…
Doctor Who – Face The Raven
The extremely untimely reviews continue! Today it's the ridic fab Face The Raven, which I watched UNSPOILERED originally, but am a bit scared now I know exactly what's coming. OH CLARA. For the first time in the history of New Who, nay, Doctor Who, I can say A WOMAN WRITER!! for the second time in…
Doctor Who – Sleep No More
It's Doctor Who day! By which I mean there is new Verity! out today, so getting back to my Doctor Who reviews seemed thematically relevant. On V!, we're discussing the very first episode of the New Series and it's quite a spiffy ep, of the podcast I mean (the telly ep is quite good too).…
Happy New Year and all that…
Some might argue the New Year arrived about a week ago; these people are, of course, wrong. It was yesterday. That bit before doesn't count because there were floods and I had fake flu, and I wish to start the New Year both well and not feeling faintly panicky every time it starts to rain.…
BBC Shop Loot!
This was going to be a very lovely Eastercon report, but I haven't quite finished writing it yet, and it's getting well into the eveningtime, when the words start to blur into one another. So, instead, here is a picture (which I've put some weird-ass filters on; in my defence I was looking at it…
