At some point today, this was supposed to be a disorganised but delightful con report about Nine Worlds, but the little hand is well, well past the twelve so I should actually have been in bed for about two hours. I leave you instead with this fine link to a freshly minted episode of Down…

Mondays: now 500% faster
I assume they're faster anyway. This is because I had my first podcast recordings yesterday since I had NEW INTERNET installed. And it was amazing. Uploading, instead of taking a seriously cantakerous hour, was over in 3 mins, and that was for two podcasts, *and* the Skype call didn't even lag. It was ridiculously awesome.…
I think I can blame this on ComicCon
I was flicking through lists of San Diego ComicCon panels on the YouTubes looking for anything of interest to me that wasn't Doctor Who, and I failed really quite badly. (The two Doctor Who panels are however excellent and I'm totally not saying this just cause three-quarters of both panels were Scottish. And that Moffat's…
Down and Safe
The first episode of this shiny new podcast that I'm on came out last week: Down and Safe, an episode-by-episode look at Blake's 7. B7, in case you don't know, is a smashing BBC sci-fi show that aired from 1978 to 1981, and combined awesome banter and fabulous costumes with broken morality compasses and spaceships.…
Podcastly Podcastings
I was on two - count em, TWO - whole podcasts last week and neither one was Verity! and only one was about Doctor Who, because I'm a multi-facted and layered individual of ENIGMATICNESS. One of these fab podcasts is the ever so brilliant Reality Bomb, where Mr Burk and Mr Kennard let me ramble…
Companion Stuff
So we've done something terrible for Verity!. On last week's show, we announced our theme for 2015: the companions of Doctor Who. So far so good, then *certain* people thought it'd be ever such a good idea to have a poll to let our listeners help decide which companions we'll be focussing on. A poll.…
Breaking Bubbles and Other Stories is out!
I received this very exciting package in the post last week: Rah! A Doctor Who story what I wrote, all real and on a CD with a cover and notes and things! There're also stories on there by the not-at-all intimidating company of Mark Ravenhill, Una McCormack, and Nev Fountain. And you too can have…

Verity #45 and Other Fripperies
There are no fripperies in this post, sorry. Everything is a very proper and substantial thing, but I felt particularly keen on the word at time of writing, so a pox on meaning, it shall be in the title. Anyway, this week! Verity! At our forty-fifth ever-so-exciting episode: "It’s another villaintastic episode of Verity! This…
Hugos and Eastercon and Breaking Bubbles
What happened to that amazing plan to blog every week, self? What happened? You're going to have to do a week of lists or something to catch up. But lists are great, right? Everyone likes lists! (Five Vegetables of Most Hellish Taste; Five Beigest Trek Episodes; Five Lego Creations People Should Make For Meeeee….by gum,…
