Testing the new blog.

How the Doctor Changed My Life
I copied this from Simon Guerrier’s blog Nothing Tra La La?
The Big Finish website has posted a news story and full details of my forthcoming Doctor Who anthology, How The Doctor Changed My Life.
Alex Mallinson has produced an absolutely stunning cover which gave me chills the first time I saw it.
The schoolboy whose twin brother vanished in the night. A woman whose house teems with alien refugees. The dad who dies every evening…
All through space and time live people, ordinary people, whose lives have been turned upside down.
People who’ve lost jobs and loved ones, or seen their homes destroyed, or found themselves on whole other planets. They’ve nothing in common with one another except that their lives can never be the same.
Because they’re people who’ve met the Doctor. Featuring 25 original stories from 25 brand-new authors – the winners of a competition to seek out bold new writing talent!

About
Your Host - Stephen with people reading one of his short stories in the background
At the age of Forty four, I have found a new life as a writer of short fiction with two pieces already published (read the blog and visit www.5thbabylonian.com to find out more).
It seems that these are now destined to become collectors items! (In other words they are no longer in print)
I am happy married to a wonderful woman, who does not want any her details published on the web (so that is all you are going to find out about her from me!)
I have had various weblogs for 7 years now (and a website for over 10 years)
