I got an amazing Eighth Doctor Adventures gift from lurking_latinist - it's such a good read, and easy to get in to even if you're not familiar with these particular companions.

I came across several Doctor Who Big Finish requests for seasonsofdrabbles , and they got me back into the audios that I really enjoyed over a decade ago. I'm having a blast listening to all these stories again and discovering new ones.

I've started out with the Eight and Charley adventures, since I remember loving them at the time. My two favourites so far are both written by Robert Shearman: The Chimes of Midnight and especially Scherzo (what a brilliant use of the audio format, great script, great acting, and the drama!). I also liked how Invaders of Mars tied in with the original War of the Wars radio broadcast, and The Natural History of Fear was great too - lots of briliant acting in that, and what a twist.

I just arrived at Terra Firma, but since I have this week off from work, I'll probably finish their original run by the end of the week. (I haven't been a huge fan of the Divergent universe storyline, even if I really liked some of the individual stories). Then I'll have to decide if I should proceed with the Lucie Miller ones (I listened to some of those at the time but can't really remember much at all) or if I should try one of the new boxsets like Dark Eyes or Doom Coalition.

I also listened to a bit a bit of Six and Evelyn - I remember really liking them. I adore Evelyn, can't wait to listen to more of those stores. (And I'll have to try some of the other Doctors as well, but there are just so many hours of content :P)

Dipping my toe in over at drawesome with the Challenge 38: Redux - redraw any of your previous artworks.

I went digging and found this on one of my old hard drives: a TARDIS Christmas card I painted in 2007 for my Doctor Who friends, and I thought that one could be fun to redo. (And, since my brain has been eaten by due South recently, it got me thinking about a crossover story where young Ben finds the TARDIS one night and meets the 12th Doctor.)

I haven't used acrylic paint in ages. It was fun, though I now wish I had used paper with less grain (or one of the canvas panels I have kicking around). I feel like I need practice with this medium, but it was fun to do!
