I rest my case.

Blink 2 get hype!

>/who/ presents:
DOCTOR WHO: SHIT TRIPS Vol. 1
- The Anthology -

>Are you a true fan of Doctor Who?
>Have you ever written down a sequence of words?

If the answer is yes or no, then you are ready to contribute a literary masterpiece to the first ever /who/ collection of original Doctor Who-based short fiction.
/who/ is finally making its unique mark in an age-old tradition of p̶a̶c̶k̶a̶g̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶f̶a̶n̶f̶i̶c̶s̶ ̶t̶o̶g̶e̶t̶h̶e̶r̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶g̶i̶v̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶m̶ ̶a̶n̶ ̶a̶i̶r̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶l̶e̶g̶i̶t̶i̶m̶a̶c̶y̶ / celebrating the magic of Who and the talent of a community.

There are no limits (except the story must be at least 1 word long, and preferably not in excess of 10,000, it's short fiction you fuck).

>- Can involve any Doctor(s), companion(s), side characters, spinoff characters and beyond, as your heart desires
>- Can be in any style, whether it's "legitimate writing", "pisstake", or "shitpost".
>- Can be about absolutely anything
>- The main focus is on good fun in the vein of the wiki, although serious entries are allowed. (If you're going to write smut, maybe approach it with a degree of levity)

Stuck for ideas? Try starting with your favourite TARDIS team (or for timeliness, 12/Clala) and one of these authentic titles:
saberpunk.net/DoctorWho/DoctorWhoSerialGenerator.php
glyphobet.net/drwho
And free scenario prompts:
games.usvsth3m.com/drwho/

We are going to be starting an index on the wiki for the collection. Anyone can contribute, no signups/pitches required. If you have ideas, feel free to broadcast them. So far we are looking at at least 10 submissions and there is always room for more.
The rest is self-explanatory. Format for uploading your work is up to you, as long as it can be conveniently copied across (and ideally don't dump long texts in /who/ directly).

Anyone who wants to do illustrations or comics is encouraged

When does he come out of it?

>Bill Heart is her full name

>But how?
>He gives her one of his hearts using some sort of futuristic medical machinery

Pleb confirmed for not being a true DW fan and never watching classic Who.

There's a reason people never watch 'classic' aka classhit Who.

It's because its shit.

Well, a pleb would say that, naturally.

The Mark of the Rani is shit tho, I can't blame anyone for not watching it.

Where did they find a boulder big enough for that statue?

>that pic

Don't blink. Blink and you're toast.

Warm buttery toast.

Classic Who is best Who. Tom Baker especially, but Jon Pertwee is gem that the fan community seems to have forgotten. I guess different Doctors come back into and out of vogue. When Matt Smith came on there was a revival of interest in Patrick Troughton.

Jonathan Nathan Turner era, maybe. And if the rumors be true, the show was persecuted into cancellation because of him rather than anything wrong with the show itself.

>but Jon Pertwee is gem that the fan community seems to have forgotten.
At least /who/ sometimes gets it right with him. Jon Pertwee is my personal favorite classic Doctor, and I think a few others on /who/ share the same or at least hold him higher than most.

>Classic Who is best Who. Tom Baker especially, but Jon Pertwee is gem that the fan community seems to have forgotten.
t. middle-aged pleb

Rami Doctor fucking when?

I think the 7 Parters can sometimes sway people away from Pertwee. He's not my favorite but one of the best for sure.

...

A lot of his stories felt kind of redundant, a lot of running back and forth for no reason other than to fill up time, but looking past it the characters themselves are just so great and fun that I think it really makes 3's era great.

UNIT gets pretty comfy with all the recurring characters and locations.

Finishing up my lipogram story. Also invited Larry to write a story for us. He sent me Vrs

Let's get Gareth to write a little something!

What went wrong?

youtube.com/watch?v=0XssNxLTcWE

Which Doctor are you using, if any?

Dodgy acting/directing choices on that scene, for sure.
If you mean the redesigned Daleks as well, they should have cut out at least 2 of the colour variants, then given them the glossy finish they had in Asylum, and not had them pose in formation like that. (Also a set/lighting that didn't look like shit would have helped.)

I honestly like the white Supreme.

Left it up to your imagination

They were too fat in the back. I have no idea why they made them so big.
If they were the same size as the regular daleks and had the Asylum finish they would have been fine.
I think Moffat is ashamed of them though. Someone asked him about them once in DWM and he told them to never mention them again.

>Also invited Larry to write a story for us. He sent me Vrs
What this men

What were the exact words you used to invite Larry?

Mad Larry Miles

What is a Vrs?

Do you think they knew and just tried to wing it?

Can I please use one of your stories from Short trips and write a sequel to it? As I said, he sent me Vrs

What went right?

youtube.com/watch?v=jIjUSzpYcuA

Hiring Christopher Eccleston to play the Doctor.

You should have asked him to write a story for us!

Pretty sure that's the only short trip he ever wrote.
He did write "The Rules of the Game of Rassilon" for one of BF's Christmas-themed anthologies, but that's not exactly a story.

Pic

no

I did and he sent me Vrs

Thats Welsh you ugly mug

He didn't write an original story, but sent a pre-existing one.

It would be nice to have new Lawrence Miles content.

I just asked Jonathan Morris, Gareth Roberts, Jim Mortimore, and Sarah Hadley for short stories. Probably gonna ask Simon Gurrier as well.

pls stop Immigrant I'm going to cringe my face off.

>I just asked Jonathan Morris, Gareth Roberts, Jim Mortimore, and Sarah Hadley for short stories. Probably gonna ask Simon Gurrier as well.
Please tell me you're meming.

Reminder that we'll probably get Eccleston audios before we get the series 9 soundtrack:

I'm already cringing myself. I've stopped the madness. Consider it temporary insanity.

Who the hell is Sarah Hadley?

Don't worry about it. Temporary insanity. Doesn't matter.

>he thinks we'll get Eccleston audios

The Third Doctor is very different from many of the more "alien" Doctors, but still very interesting.

>he thinks we'll get the series 9 soundtrack

That's the joke.

Where have we gotten her last name from?

We haven't, that's speculation.

Ask Jon Blum.

Nah, I've stopped the madness.

Plus, I think he's retired.

>Compassion will kill the Doctor in the end

Nah, he published a Blake's 7 novel just last year and is about to release an audio featuring the aliens from "Seeing I".

AKA le fake spoilers meme

>messaging real writers about /who/'s joke anthology
jesus christ

...It was temporary insanity. Let us never speak of it again.

What do we do if someone actually agrees, though?

What would you ask her, /who/?

youtube.com/watch?v=RyXcd56R27g

Well, if someone agrees, then obviously we'll accept.

I would ask her to write a fic (just joking)

If she's bigger on the inside

How long until we get photos with Peter and Pearl?

2017, probably, when they actually have to start promoting the next series.

Just got back from their first photoshoot together. I'm uploading them now. It's at 26%.

>that time someone asked her if she fancies peter

Kek she probably does but why the fuck would you ask that?
Reminds me when some user here was going to meet Mccoy and wanted to ask him if he had sex with Sophie Aldred. Wtf m8s.

youtube.com/watch?v=G6PPkHwVcYE&t=22m

Bait? We already got photos of them.

Based on user's picture, they clearly meant photos other than the initial in-costume shoot, like ones used for interviews and other publicity, photos that depicted Peter and Pearl in more casual situations. Stop being so quick to call bait.

The funny thing is apparently someone asked McCoy that, and the man just laughed with any comment.

Also, reminder when McCoy was at the convention where Clare Kramer was hosting, and he completely went off the stage, and ended up wandering in the crowd, and later played the spoons on Neve's buttocks (the woman who plays Vastra).

She definitely does.

Bait?

Yeah they both did or at least she did.
I remember this one interview at a convention where they asked Capaldi and Jenna a question and Capaldi answered first and Jenna was just staring in a trance at Peter playing with her hair until Capaldi got her attention. Someone made a webm if I can find it.

This is hilarious. Thanks for the post!

Nah, he's a married man. They are just great friends.

Seriously, why would they ask her that?

Oh here it is.

>a woman looks at a man that she's speaking to while itching her head
wow fucking calm down there jenna, he's a married man!!

>the way she completely dodges the question

I know - that was the most hilarious part!

...

>being this blind

Hey man whatever you say

YOU JUST KNOW!

I wonder what memes we'll get with Bill.

Have you written anything for the anthology?

...

I honestly don't know what you're talking about, what did I miss?

Look at this post We have like 7 entries already.

Gosh um, I'm reeeally bad at writing stuff but I guess I could give it a try?

...

Yeah. The unofficial slogan of this anthology is "It doesn't have to be good. Just have fun."

Kek.
