I’m still busy enjoying the buzz of being a newly published author, but details of the book containing my next short story are now online!
Once again, it’s an anthology of Doctor Who stories published by Big Finish. Short Trips: Indefinable Magic takes the magical and fantastic as its theme. Edited by Neil Corry, it contains tales both by Doctor Who veterans like Gareth Roberts, Steve Lyons and Simon Guerrier, as well stories by some of the new writers like myself from How the Doctor Changed My Life.
My story is called Blessed are the Peacemakers, and contains the words “hippopotamus”, “infidel” and “virus”. If you listen to A Podcast of Impossible Things, you might have heard a few more details from one of my looser-tongued fellow podcasters in an edition where I was away, but I won’t reveal too much at this stage.
At the moment I’m just putting the finishing touches to my entry for Red Planet Pictures’ scriptwriting competition, which closes on Tuesday. The script contains the words “banana”, “primogeniture” and “shed”, and the line “Not even superheroes can get away with murder”.
