Ken Stott was a tough act to follow, but Richard Rankin was great and had a real presence onscreen - fingers crossed for a second season!

I can't just pick one favourite, but Midnight has always stuck with me - I've never been more on the edge of my seat.
The audio drama Holy Terror is also pretty special. All hail the big talking bird!

I'm not entirely sure why I shared this. Maybe I just needed to vent a bit; it's been on my mind a lot and the brain gremlins have been rather unkind this week.
(Perhaps I'll feel self-conscious and delete it later.)

But it's not a career and it probably never will be. So maybe I need to recalibrate the dream. Does it have to be a career, for me? I wish the option was there - a genuine option and not a roll of the dice - but fantasies don't pay the bills.

I'm currently doing a PhD, something I got rejected from multiple times before finally getting accepted. I've had some short stories published, including in PodCastle, one of my dream markets. I hope to crack some of the others when I have more time for short stories. I'm proud of these things.
