Prologue : Death Among Thieves Elvam Tamblor had been many things in his life, foremost among them both thief and liar. It was for the former that he found himself strapped into a drop pod with four aliens descending into the atmosphere of the small planetoid that contained the largest prison run by the Priests … Continue reading Doctor Who: Priests of Paradox – Prologue

Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Epilogue
Epilogue : A New Face The Doctor's eyes opened slowly. Though he had been awake and aware for some time, he had resisted opening his eyes and simply listened to his surroundings. For the most part, beyond the tricks his own ears played on him, there was silence all around him. A faint vibration was … Continue reading Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Epilogue
Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode Nine
This is the last episode, minus the epilogue which will follow tomorrow probably. There is a link at the end of this page that takes you to the beginning of this tale, plus the prequel series that begins this epic adventure, and you can read it all in order fairly easily now. 9. The Red … Continue reading Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode Nine
Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode Seven
7. Tea and Nemesis "The tea party shall commence in one hour," the Goddess's spearman said to the group as he roughly escorted them into their cell. "A wash basin has been provided so that you might make yourselves presentable." The cell door slammed shut, its echo adding a foreboding finality to their plight, and … Continue reading Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode Seven
Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode Six
6. The Death Tribe and the Goddess Tobun's hut was modest in size compared to some of the other dwellings in the village. Some tribesmen had built their homes into the largest trees at the edges of the clearing, leading to some intricate and large designs. Their eldest member, however, was a man of minimal … Continue reading Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode Six
Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode Five
5. Time Lord, Time Bandit The village of the Kinzix tribe was a far hike from where the Captain's ship had come down, and the forest grew thicker around them before they began to see signs of habitation. Sparse game trails they followed soon turned to well-worn paths with ruts from carts, but even then … Continue reading Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode Five
Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode Four
4. Vexes and Vexation "Never heard of such a thing," Captain Light replied gruffly. "And besides, the TDI spans universes, there are bound to be plenty of things they're into that I've no business knowing." "I would think the ability to create miniature universes from scratch would be difficult to conceal. That's a lot of … Continue reading Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode Four
Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode Three
3. Departures and Arrivals After narrowly defusing a further confrontation with Captain Light, Amy and Rory showed the Doctor some of the exhibits that had interested them the most. Most of the things they found fascinating were child’s play to the Doctor. Where they expected him to agree that a self-perpetuating fruit tree was an … Continue reading Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode Three
Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode Two
Inspiration. I often find it when I need it most, and not a second before I am about to give up and strive to become a normal human being. Unrelated to this story, sort of, a recent trip to Honduras has completely filled in all the plot holes in my next novel (tentatively titled Luna-C). … Continue reading Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode Two
Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode One
1. History Lessons "Funny story, this," the Doctor explained as he leaned out the door of the TARDIS. He held on tightly to the door frame and extended a small paper tube towards a billowy pink substance, just outside the blue police box. Below him was open space, an endless sea of stars. "There was … Continue reading Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Episode One
Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Prologue
More Who fan fiction, continuing on from The Case of the Prime Machine. I thought about writing the Yazoshea trip in depth, but decided in the end to use it as a action opening. Red Right Hand is completely an Eleventh Doctor story, with Amy and Rory in supporting roles, as was the current casting … Continue reading Doctor Who: Red Right Hand – Prologue
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Nine
At first, I found it difficult to rewrite this finale. I liked it just as it was. Originally, the big reveal was completely different, and it may be obvious at the end where and why the change was made. Since I had rewritten the part of the Eleventh Doctor for the Fourth, it opened up … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Nine
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Eight
8. Reality I am an old man now – I can feel it with each minute movement of my frail and failing body. I ponder the realities of being able to count my remaining years on the fingers of my hands, or perhaps even just one hand. As I reflect back on the events I … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Eight
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Seven
I don't dislike seeing children portrayed as something malevolent - in fact, it frightens me a bit. I just don't prefer it. It smacks of something supernatural. It brings to mind Children of the Corn, Village of the Damned, the Omen, among others. Ooo, or how about Ju-On? I see a child as having no … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Seven
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Six
Originally, I wrote this with the 11th Doctor. It seemed easier at the time. In the television series, they had just made the transition to Matt Smith from David Tennant and I was already a fan of the bow-tied Timelord. While reading through this for a new publication on this blog, I made a startling … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Six
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Five
I warned you - several times in fact. I won't apologize. You will notice that the style begins to deteriorate from what was originally what I consider to be a very skillful representation of the tone and rhythm of the original Doyle adventures. I considered this as I wrote it, and, as you will glean … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Five
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Four
It's not that I didn't want to complete this story in Doyle's style - I was enjoying the challenge. The truth is that an idea came to me that I could not let go of. It nagged at the back of my mind until, slowly, it began to corrupt the beautiful little fan fiction I … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Four
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Three
Hmm ... Still seems like a Sherlock Holmes story ... I continue to connect this story with events played out in several of Doyle's pieces, and yet, something smells fishy ... almost jellyfish sticky. 3. A Web of Deceit My friend began to exhibit the usual symptoms of keen interest in strange circumstances. His gait … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Three
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Two
I would venture to say that fans of fan fiction are a ferociously fickle faction of feral freaks. They tend to be too forgiving of continuity flaws, and to quick to give credit to blatant and predictable repetition. I respect the fan fictioneer that writes a story from a secondary character's point of view, or … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Two
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode One
Being in somewhat of a frantic explosion of creativity, I find it difficult to form a cohesive story to post here on a regular basis. Rest assured, the creative process has not been hampered, nor have I run into obstacles that will prevent me from continuing to write. No, it simply the case that I … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode One
