New comics review: Lazarus volume 1!

Review of Lazarus volume 1 on Many A True Nerd. Seriously, it's a very good comic, and if you ever take my recommendations seriously, go for this one.

After a raft of kinda middling TV in the last week or two, good to be able to recommend something without reservations.

Hobson & Choi #35 - "New Territory"

Hobson & Choi #35 - "New Territory"

Hobson & Choi #35 up now on Jukepop! New office, new case, new newness in "New Territory"!

So that's fun. Elsewhere in H&C land, as you may know from mentions elsewhere, we hit #13 in the monthly Jukepop top 30, another best-ever, which I'm quite pleased with.

Oh, and the Hobson & Choi Podcast released its sixth episode. I'm quite pleased with the upcoming seventh podcast, which will feature a wee twist on the usual outro section.

That'll be all for now. If you want to help us take over the world (or even just the internet), feel free to review us on Web Fiction Guide or review the podcast on iTunes, it's all handy.

My editing is out of order!

As avid Twitter followers will already know, I've been entering a difficult phase of editing recently. My current novel in progress (the Satan one I mentioned earlier) is coming along well, but thanks to both my own instinctive genius and some insightful feedback from my writing group, I have a lot of changes to make already.

I am currently roughly 57% through the book - I worked that out with a calculator - and already I know I need to rewrite four chapters from close to the beginning and probably massively rejig even the most recent ones I've done.

New TV review: Homeland!

Review of the Homeland season 3 premiere on The Digital Fix! Is Brody still going?

And you may be excited to hear Hobson & Choi made #13 in the Jukepop ratings September, which is another all-time record. Go team. Now time to begin voting for September.

Hobson & Choi Podcast #6 - Social Awesome

This week, Hobson & Choi investigate the sinister Social Awesome and meet a bunch of new potential suspects. Meanwhile, I wait for a chart placement, muse about NaNoWriMo and recommend a comic. It's a tightly packed eight minutes in podcast #6.

You can play the episode in the player below, download the MP3 here or subscribe on iTunes to have it thrown at you every week. Or if you hate iTunes on principle, you can point your RSS reader at our Libsyn page to get every episode.

Hope you're all having a good weekend, folks. And if you've enjoyed this podcast, why not mention it to your friends?

Hobson & Choi #34 - "Moving Day"

Hobson & Choi #34 - "Moving Day"

Hobson & Choi #34 is up now! The start of Case Two, and after last time's triumphs, Choi thuds back down to earth in "Moving Day".

I'm pretty pleased with this episode too, hopefully you'll all enjoy it. Exciting to be moving on to a whole new case and pushing the subplots forward a bit.

And thanks to everyone who helped vote for us in September's chart - not sure where we've ended up yet, hopefully the very top, obviously.

Last but not least, the Hobson & Choi Podcast is now up to #5. Worth a look if you want to hear me do some silly voices.

Sci-fi audio sitcom review: A Brief History of Time Travel

My review of the fun sci-fi audio sitcom A Brief History of Time Travel on Many A True Nerd. Like Red Dwarf or Hitchhiker's Guide? Give this a go.

Something a little different from the review department there, but still firmly recommended. Now, time to start prepping Hobson & Choi for launch...
