For her birthday, my sister got a DVD box of Dr Who. It’s been fun rewatching a few of the episodes from season 1, but what we’re really looking forward right now is to watch the new episodes and see the new Doctor in action. That’s Ten. The latest season isn’t included, I’m afraid, but since we’d only seen season 1 before, a lot of it will be new.
My State of Play fic(s) – actually, it’s one long fic that I divided into chapters.
I almost forgot, it’s time for another fandom – Spooks.
On one of my other sites – In libris libertas – I’m discussing all my favorite books, authors, tv series, movies and more. That includes actual reviews of a kind. LOL. I’m not promising they’ll be perfect, but if you like you’re welcome to take a look.
I am promising that I haven’t forgotten about that site or abandoned it. Eventually, there will be more reviews. Honestly.
Remember this 90′s series? About the homicide cops in Baltimore. You’ll find my fanfics based on this fandom here.
This is a tv series you might not have heard of: The Eagle – A Crime Odyssey. It’s a Danish cop series, but it’s more than that, really. You could say it’s a drama, and the titles of the episodes are taken from the Odyssey, if I’m not mistaken. If you have heard of it, you might be interested in my page with The Eagle fics. You’ll find it here

Since I write historic stories, I began to wonder where you draw the line. What is a historic story? When it comes to fan fiction, I suppose it depends on in what era the fandom is set, but the question remains. What point in time, can be referred to as historic?
I guess there are different ways of looking at it. It probably depends on how old you are. An example: some years ago the tv series American Dreams, set in the 1960′s, was on here in Sweden. I tried to persuade my mother to watch it too. She said no. But, I insisted, it’s historic. No, it isn’t, she said.
In my own writing I’ve decided to treat a story set in the 1980′s as historic, whereas one set in the 1990′s isn’t. Some years from now, that might change, but at the moment, that’s my division. I can remember the1980′s, but I still say that’s historic. It’s so long ago.
Do you agree? What is your definition of a historic story (tv series, movie etc)?
