And since this is the final H&C chapter before Christmas, I included a brief H&C festive message at the end. Don't get excited, it really is just a short paragraph. Not a story or anything.
But yes, this is the last chapter before the Day Of Santa, so I guess it's definitely Christmas now. I'm off to listen to festive music and wrap my presents, hope you're all on track.
As half-predicted in last week's WriteBlog, my fiction-writing has slowed to a standstill thanks to festive distractions and an inconvenient cold. I'm just about keeping up with Hobson & Choi commitments, but aside from those, all quiet.
So, both to keep this blog ticking over and because I genuinely love reviewing stuff, I'm going to do a few posts about stories, shows and stuff I enjoyed during 2013. These are in no particular order and may involve items released pre-2013 that I've only just got round to dealing with, though I'll try to keep those to a minimum.
This time out: movies, music and podcasts. Subsequent posts will cover books, comics and TV.
Also, the start of everyone's last working week before Christmas. Hope you're using it well.
The big midway action sequence begins this week in the story, as Hobson & Choi discover why one generally doesn't lurk around strange buildings at night. Meanwhile, in the back matter, I get a bit overexcited.
You can play the episode in the player below, download the MP3 here or subscribe on iTunes to have it thrown at you every week. Or if you hate iTunes on principle, you can point your RSS reader at our Libsyn page to get every episode.
Hobson & Choi Podcast #16 - Could Be Darker by Nick Bryan on Mixcloud
That was a refreshing reminder of why I stopped writing that show up week-by-week. Ah well.
So yes, a mere couple of hours after blogging about H&C's anthology appearance, here we are with a new chapter. I'll leave you alone for a bit now, I swear. It's a decent chapter though, the final moments of Case Two, before we launch into Case Three next week.
As ever, the Podcast is still going as well, if this still isn't enough Hobson & Choi. Enjoy.
Those of you who see my updates on any form of social media are probably familiar with the photograph on the right of me (and my thumb) in the Jukepop Serials anthology, as I posted it more or less everywhere on Tuesday night.
Now, for anyone who fancies some context, here it is: Jukepop Serials, the publishers of Hobson & Choi, have produced a print collection of their ten "best" serials.
