What have you done today to make me proud? (He's on the Hugo-winning Sfsqueecast podcast too. That's the silly question he asks the guest at the end. See I don't have to be cryptic.)Silly question 2: On the phone, do people confuse you with Neil Gaiman? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Esl1gi... (Actually they've both written dr who episodes)
He also writes comics...
Paul wrote the 'Human Nature' episode of dr who where david tennant forgets he's the dr (based on his novel)? Nice.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdUs32...

He's funny though. Should be a good interview.
Here's a question.What things have you discovered about characters like the Doctor, Superman, Batman, and Vandal Savage that have changed how you thought you were going to write them?
I'd like to know anything he can tell us about what he's going to be working on at Marvel Comics. Or if he thinks he might be able to work on any of the Disney/Marvel television projects?
You've had the opportunity to write for some of the most iconic characters and franchises in the SFF genre. I'm sure you're often asked what you'd love to add to your resume, but I want to know the opposite: are there characters or franchises you'd refuse to work on? If so, why?
Are there more novels planned or being written after London Falling?
Questions from one Paul to another:'Father's Day' and 'Human Nature/The Family of Blood' are two of my favourite episodes of the revamped Doctor Who. Bearing in mind the high regard fans in general have for these episodes (not to mention the Hugo nominations... oh look, I just did), would you consider writing for the show again?
And a supplemental question: which do you find the most artistically rewarding, writing for TV, writing novels, or writing comics?
He wrote Father's Day too? Paul, you're tearing my heart out.
Paul, when are you coming back to do Gallifrey One again? I have some Action Comics I need signed.
Regarding SFSqueecast: How did it come about and who would you like to squee (as a guest) with in the future and why?
It was a lovely interview, and thanks very much for all your questions.
Damn, this is what I get for ignoring Goodreads for the past 2 weeks while I've been playing my 3DS and Wii U nonstop. I was such a huge fan of CAPTAIN BRITAIN AND MI:13. And I've really been enjoying both DEMON KNIGHTS and SAUCER COUNTRY. Also, his run on ACTION COMICS is looking even more brilliant given the current state of Superman and Lex Luthor in the New 52.
