High-Value Update
This is quite an exciting day – the opportunity to earn my “bill money” in the space of 5 articles rather than the usual 8! As I write this, a virtual installation of Windows XP is taking place (onto which a security application I’m testing will be installed) while simoultaneously a second security-related…
What I’ve Learned This Week
For some reason I expected the first week of freelancing to be pretty uneventful. After all, the idea for the first couple of months is to multiply four-fold the amount of freelancing I was doing already. I had also managed to secure a new position writing for www.devicemag.com (a great technical resource) so…
The Game Changes!
So, here we are on the brink of a new career, and really a new way of living, not to mention working. I’m really looking forward to getting stuck into daily writing, as well as spreading my wings with the other projects, which regular readers will be aware of. So once the leaving…
The Clock Ticks…
…and I’m running out of time! My life “working for the man” ends in just 5 days time. After a weeks leave (during which time I’ll be playing host to friends from the USA) I will be booting up my PC on Monday, 4th of October at around 7am ready to start my…
Out in the Open!
So, those of you that follow me on Twitter or Facebook will now know that all of the obscure and cryptic comments over the past few weeks have been leading up to the announcement that I have taken the big step of quitting my day job in order to write full time. This…
Big Things
So, as the time approaches, various “big things” are in motion. Firstly, a redesign of Kasterborous.com proceeds apace, hopefully completing this weekend once a few minor things are ironed out. Secondly, the end of Quintessential Comedy; I’ve decided to end this particular blog and integrate any particularly interesting comedy related material here. Third,…
The Big Plan
Bit early to go into detail about this, however, in a rare Doctor Who-free post, I’m going to explain how I intend to develop as a writer over the next 12 months. With the impending death of Quintessential Comedy (relevant posts will end up here) I intend to concentrate on the following: Brighthub…
Blimey More Doctor Who!
At some point soon I hope to be able to expand beyond bits left off Kasterborous – but just a quickie to say that the three scripts for Time Leech comics are available on www.kasterborous.com. Part one of The Time Leech appeared in the Vworp Vworp! #1 pro/fanzine earlier this year, while part…
More Doctor Who!
Despite the vast amount of Brighthub work that I generally don’t talk about but will be in the coming days, I have yet another Doctor Who project on the go – the biggest yet in terms of depth and timescale. As already mentioned briefly, Ultimate Regeneration is based on a selection of relevant…
Ghost Train on Kasterborous
Along with the usual news, reviews and even an interview with Kasterborous designer Anthony Dry, Brian (Terranova) and I have agreed to feature a new Doctor Who comic strip on the site – which in turn demands a new search for an illustrator! Ghost Train has already been re-imagined as an Eleventh Doctor…
