Episode #143 of the Doctor Who: Panel to Panel podcast hosted by Jeremy Bement is live, and leads with an all-new comic creator interview.
Comic writer Lilah Sturges joins Jeremy to talk about her story “A Fairytale Life” featuring the Tenth Doctor drawn by Kelly Yates, her career and more.
Plus there’s a review the latest strip from Doctor Who Magazine, and lots of news, too!
What’s better: an ugly reality or beautiful fantasy? This is the question the Doctor is forced to confront in “A Fairytale Life” a story set on a medieval fantasy world where Amy Pond finds herself reluctantly cast as a damsel in distress.
Lilah Sturges has written articles on topics ranging from Hamlet to the transgender experience. She has also authored two novels, as well as numerous short stories and comic books for which she has been nominated for both the Eisner and Ignatz awards. Prior to her career as a writer, she worked as a web developer and software architect. She has a passion for science and once considered becoming a physicist, though she ultimately graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a degree in English.
