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 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

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 – 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 – Epilogue
I've written a lot of science fiction - deliberately, in most cases, in an attempt to master the various "standard" sci-fi formulas. I've done time travel, parallel universes, alien invasion, virtual reality, temporal paradox, exploration, artificial intelligence, etc. This story needed an alien, just for a moment, and so I found myself in a position … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Epilogue
Dark Frontier
As Jeremiah choked the last bit of life from the lawman, the rest of his gang mounted their horses and began the job of rounding up their stolen cattle anew. Sheriff Carter went limp in Jeremiah’s grasp, but the criminal cattle thief kept his vise-like grip tight until there was no doubt their pursuer was … Continue reading Dark Frontier
Day Thirty-Four – The Mysterious Flamingo of the Tundra
They say space ruins relationships. I believe it. I’m not talking about personal space, even though they might be. I don’t mean that his demand for guy time away from her coupon clipping is the spark or spur to the inevitable divide. I don’t suggest that two people perpetually intertwined for twenty-four hours out of … Continue reading Day Thirty-Four – The Mysterious Flamingo of the Tundra

Day Twenty-Nine – Papercut Moseby’s Left Withered
There is darkness and sound--a repetitive thud and scraping of metal. I feel heat radiating around me, and I feel trapped and claustrophobic. I cannot move my body more than a few inches in any direction. There are walls surrounding me, lined with soft silk. I feel myself pressed against a cushion to my back--laying … Continue reading Day Twenty-Nine – Papercut Moseby’s Left Withered
Day Ten – Bromance of the Three Colonies
Alacamians are spider-like by our human standards. The alien race typically has a spherical central body with an apparently random number of appendages extended from it. Ancient Alacamian culture once revered those of its ranks with the largest number of appendages, and shunned those with the fewest - though, that has changed in recent millennia. … Continue reading Day Ten – Bromance of the Three Colonies
