Did you find the New Year left you lacking something special?
Was Christmas missing something which the Doctor could not cure? Do you feel a void of Time and Space in your life? Then perhaps The Doctor Reads the Doctor By The Doctor series is for you!

This series was in part inspired by a friend of mine who is dyslexic, and who finds reading something of a chore as a consequence. He is also a fan of the same type of science fiction material. And so I decided to read some of my old published stories (which my former editor assured me had returned to me copyright-wise, as it is now long out of print ;) ).

These stories were written and published over fifteen years ago, so I hope you can be kind and tolerant. That same friend had suggested I could do a series just reading the dictionary. Hopefully this will be marginally more entertaining ;)

This second video in the series is the short story, "The End" first published in May 2004. It was a simpler age; in those days spirits were brave, the stakes were high, men were real men, women were real women and small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were real small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri.
While recording this video I had momentarily considered "doing a Lucas" and re-writing bits here in there, to bring them more in line with how I would write today, both in terms of literary competency and in light of my increased understanding of Cosmology and Astrophysics. However, barring one typo introduced during the production process which rendered one sentence nonsensical, I decided to read it as it was originally envisioned, warts and all.
Finally, if anyone sees any similarity between any of my stories and newer TV episodes, I would like to point out that they were all written and published between one and two years before the re-launch in 2005.

Take care.
