Stuff and Moonshine

I’ve been updating a multi-chapter fic weekly for the past couple of months, but these past few days I’ve been obsessing over a potential Doctor Who fic, so I guess that’s on too, now:

Revelation In San Diego ( words) by moon_custafer
Chapters: 1/?
Fandom: Doctor Who
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Sarah Jane Smith, Fourth Doctor, Original Characters
Additional Tags: Case Fic, 1930s, California, 20th Century
Summary: Following the events of Pyramids of Mars, the Doctor hopes to cheer up Sarah Jane with a visit to golden-age Hollywood, and the TARDIS is only off by a hundred miles or so this time. But they soon have something else to worry about.

For those who’ve never read any of my Who fics: usually they’re what happens when I think up a scenario and some original characters, so I put a Doctor Who framework around them in order to entice readers to take a look. Which may well be what a lot of the classic series writers were doing anyway (I maintain that shows with a wandering protagonist are basically anthologies in disguise).

So – since being elected, mayor Rob Ford has cut the budget for public transit in order to give a tax break to car-owners; cancelled a pedestrian bridge that had already been approved and budgeted for; eliminated the bike lanes on a major street; refused to attend Gay Pride because he wants that weekend off; and taken a hard-line approach to graffiti removal that has already destroyed at least one commissioned mural put up by a neighbourhood association.

I guess you can’t accuse him of breaking his campaign promises, or of not running true to form.
