I have a reputation for violence. Well, not real violence. Mine tends to be the written sort. A stabbing in Shepherd Part 2, the odd torture scene in FarSight and Breathless, even an attempted suicide in Surrendered. The whole gamut of blood and gore and pain.

The Dubious Lure of Writing UFO
I decided to take a long hard look at the reasons why I started to write UFO fanfic back in 2009. It’s certainly not for the kudos, or the reviews. It’s not as if there are that many writers either. Continue reading
Alec Freeman: Identified
(aka: The Memetic Mutation of Alec Freeman!)
Alec Freeman has had a pretty rough deal at the hands of authors in the past. A considerable amount of the fanfic that has been written seems to have dragged the character of Freeman away from the man who was portrayed by George Sewell, and more often than not all that we are left with is a thin and almost comical shadow of one of the most powerful and certainly influential characters in the UFO series after Ed Straker.

Vengeance 3: Revenge is a ……….
He grinned to himself. The door was locked, the house almost deserted, now that they had all gone off . Just him, alone. And now he could do it. Continue reading
Vengeance 2: Back with a Vengeance
Jeff called the family together in the lounge, his face sombre and grim. ‘Well boys. It’s happened again,’ his voice muted with concern. ‘She’s back.’ Continue reading

I knew I was going to have to tell her sometime today, but she was still asleep when I pushed back the covers and, muscles stiff and aching, sat on the edge of the bed. Not enough sleep last night. Not enough sleep most nights really. Nightmares do that to you. Make you afraid to sleep, to close your eyes in case they come for you. Continue reading
Rachel Chronicles: 16 AfterMath

Paul Foster hummed to himself as he entered the studio office. A beautiful May morning, bright skies promising a warm maybe, with any luck, even a hot day and it was Wednesday. A good day. Especially when tomorrow was the first day of his vacation. Two weeks in Antigua in one of the island’s smaller hotels. Wonderful. Two weeks away from SHADO and Straker, away from Alec and aliens, film directors and fans. Just today to get through. Easy. Continue reading
Rachel Chonicles: 15 Castled
Castled
(a chess move designed to put the king in a place of safety)
