Hobson & Choi #9 - "Family Time" - Up now!

Another week, another Hobson & Choi chapter goes up! This week: "Family Time", as our heroes face various awkward confrontations.

So that's up now on Jukepop, have a read and a vote if you have a second. Ta.

Oh, and you can still follow the serial on Facebook or Twitter if you want the latest updates, news, work in progress musings, etc.

#FridayFlash - "Don'wanna"

Another week, and this time, we're off to Subway. This one wrote itself, and is probably odd, but I was happy with the tone.

As ever, vote for Hobson & Choi and make me happy. New chapter coming tomorrow! More Friday Flashes on the Friday Flash site.

New TV blogging: Game of Thrones book differences thingy!

Since I've recently read the third book in A Song Of Ice And Fire, I run down five major book/TV differences I've spotted in Game of Thrones season 3 so far...

True facts. If I've missed any, let me know.

London Falling by Paul Cornell – Book Review

Today’s book review is London Falling by Paul Cornell – a writer I already liked for his excellent Captain Britain And MI13 comics, as well as the Human Nature two-parter on Doctor Who, one of my favourite David Tennant episodes.

So I had expectations of London Falling, described in the authorial blurb as his “first urban fantasy novel”. It’s the beginning of a mooted Shadow Police series, introducing a team of enjoyably grounded police folk, who find themselves thrust into the messy world of supernatural evil lurking beneath the surface of the one they already knew.

New TV blogs: Game of Thrones and Broadchurch!

Two reviews today, both covering yesterday's TV...

First up, ITV mystery village drama Broadchurch on The Digital Fix.

And, more popularly for the geek audience...

A bumpy second episode for Game of Thrones on Dork Adore.

Hobson & Choi #8 - "Evening Plans"

Chapter eight of Hobson & Choi up now on Jukepop! Hobson goes on late night crime safari, whilst Choi gets lectured about bicycles!

I'm really getting into the swing of this now, thanks to everyone who's been voting, sharing or anything-else-ing. If you want more updates on the serial, there is also a new Facebook and Twitter presence. If nothing else, you'll be first to know when a chapter goes up.

New TV blogging: Doctor Who on Dork Adore

Review of last night's Doctor Who on Dork Adore! Can anyone stop the Power Of Leaf?

Latest Hobson & Choi chapter also available!

New TV blogging: Walking Dead finale on Dork Adore

Review of Walking Dead season 3 finale on Dork Adore!

Auto-posted on Friday night, but was busy yesterday so didn't get to plug it on social media. There you go.

#FridayFlash: "Drink More Water"

A short piece this week, as I've been preoccupied with other sundry bits, also catching up after the Easter break. Still happy enough with it, although it has a lot to live up to - last week's "Wake Me" had perhaps my best reception ever. To be fair, it was pretty good.

Whilst not writing a substantial Friday story, I have been establishing Facebook and Twitter presences for my ongoing web-series Hobson & Choi. So if you're enjoying that and would like a direct update for new chapters, as well as the occasional news or insight about it, give those a look. As ever, more Friday Flash stories available on the Friday Flash site.

New TV blogs: Game of Thrones! Broadchurch! Misfits!

Busy evening last night on the TV blogging, and here it all is...

Firstly, and perhaps most excitingly, I reviewed the return of Game of Thrones for Dork Adore.

Meanwhile, over on Digital Fix...

The latest review of ITV's village miseryfest Broadchurch.

Only a short piece, but I also did a short newsburst about E4 cancelling Misfits. Alas.

Hope you found something to your taste in that lot. I'm off to lie down.
