I haven't written for a while, I've been busy working on a radio drama which is now completed and has been sent out. Overall I'm happy with the script, it has elements of dark comedy and the humour adds to the menace. Some of the scenes are probably an acquired taste and won't suit everyone, but you never can.
After watching the new epsiode of Doctor Who I firmly believe that Steven Moffatt is the best screenwriter in the country. To introduce a new Doctor, new companion, new TARDIS and completely overhaul the series and then keep an engaging story underneath all of that takes some skill. It didn't feel as limp as first episodes sometimes can, I didn't know the new Doctor going in, but it only took a few minutes for me to feel comfortable with him. He is a great, great writer and Matt Smith looks promising as the Doctor.
I have now started on a new radio drama, in fact I've started on three! I am going to focus on one in particular, it's extremely dark and is actually quite difficult to write, nevertheless I think it makes a good point, especially concerning how difficult it is to get a career going at the moment.
By the time I start my Masters in September I should have a really strong portfolio of work, I'm almost glad I was forced to take a year out; my writing has really improved already in six months.
