Dreamwatch magazine are pointing their readers to
Fables of Forgotten Things in a short but lovely feature on their Total Sci Fi website (read it
here). The rambling interview I did with Sci Fi Pulse is
here and their original story
here. You can read the interview I did for SFX
here. Their original story is
here. Thanks to all for showing an interest. Thanks also to the people who've left such wonderful comments about the pilot and for the emails! Fables really was a labour of love and it means a great deal to us that, despite all the odds, it's finally being seen and talked about. There's been a real flurry of interest since the film went up on BBC Film Network last week (helped no doubt by the furore surrounding the Paul Mcgann Doctor Who story - is he back? isn't he? I don't know! Hope so though!). Please do check out the interview I did with
Sci Fi Now that should be in the November issue - they've got pictures and everything!

Hi Simon
great to hear from you (and advance apologies if you get 2 comments from me- put it down to a dodgy modem).
Oddly enough, I'd just seen the SFX article (my favourite mag) so 'Fables of Forgotten Things' was top of my 'to watch' list. Hope the resurgence of interest pays off.
Loved 'The Magic Mile' too. I saw it almost a year ago and it still stayed with me aI'm also a bit of a Clannad fan. I wanted a bit of the 'Robin Of Sherwood' theme in my film but the producers and director all looked at me strangely.
Maybe I'll get a new blog pic with me staring off a clifftop holding a kestrel on my arm...
Anyway, great to hear from you- and should you fancy a coffee/ pint in London, do let me know!
Thanks David! Kestrel sounds good - perhaps chuck a little mist in there too (I couldn't get a smoke machine for my pic). Can't wait to catch 'Faintheart' - trailer is hilarious. Will definitely take you up on the pint sometime!
Hi Simon
just seen 'Fables...' on BBC Film Network. Despite less than great BBC Player, its wonderful spookiness shone through. It was reminiscent of some of the darker kids TV of my youth and the more gothic 'Who' tales such as 'Family Of Blood'. Wonderful stuff.
Incidentally, I did a writers guild magazine interview with 3 new 'Who' writers. If you're not all interviewed/articled out, maybe you could do a feature for them?
Hi David - thanks again. Aw shucks! I'm glad you picked up on the childhood resonances - it was a very conscious move (hey we had the chance to do whatever we wanted so I figured why not?!). I'll pop over to yours now...
