2nd Doctor Patrick Troughton is my favourite, I loved his style and the dynamic between him and Jamie was brilliant. Matt Smith is a very good doctor and I like his work on Doctor Who, if he does more he may make my list as one of the best, but for me it's always been Troughton.

I love this novel so I'm very interested to see if they can get it done well. I didn't like I,robot mainly because it was nothing like the book and nothing like how I'd imagine. I would like to know who they'd get to be Elijah and Daneel, I love that duo so I'd be interested to see who they get...

When I'm writing I sometimes like to draw my characters to kind of reference the type of thing I'm writing about so I have consistency. I find this most helpful when I'm designing a creature. At the moment I've got a dragon style creature in one of the stories I'm writing.Even though I'm...

Re: Discussion September 2011 Writing Challenge Great theme, I just have to think of a story now. It seems I'm still in a horror mood from last month. I can only think of horror stories for this theme.

When I was little I used to draw my characters and maps of the cities I set my characters in. I used to do this all the time. It's very useful for mapping where they are for yourself. The story I'm working on at the moment takes place in my home town so I just visit those places when I'm...
