Hobson & Choi #38 - "Disturbed Duo"
Yes, it's a quiet chapter of Hobson & Choi this week, but y'know, it's The Big Spooky Day, why not turn things slightly grim?
Today is the last day of October as you probably already know (Happy Halloween!) so if you haven't caught up for a few weeks and want to blast through a few chapters to help us in the monthly charts, go for it. We love you.
Now, I'm off to a cafe to plan the entire of my NaNo. No biggie.

WriteBlog #3 - The Short Pitch And Me
As promised in the last one of these, I've been doing a few small projects in the buffer between finishing Part Two of my current novel last week and starting Part Three for NaNoWriMo. The main one I've found is submitting a few ideas for short comic stories, using the themes and guidelines here.
