Commentary During Books Doctor Who: The Writer's Tale - The Final Chapter

When The Writer's Tale was published in autumn 2008, it was immediately embraced as a classic. For this extensively revised and updated paperback edition, Russell T Davies and Benjamin Cook continue their candid and in-depth correspondence to take in work on the last of Russell's 2009 specials - and the end of David Tennant's era as The Doctor - while also looking back to the achievements of the first three seasons. With over 300 pages of all-new material, including new photos and original artwork, The Writer's Tale is a fitting tribute to Russell T Davies' phenomenal achievement in bringing Doctor Who back for a new generation of fans.

Notice Of Books Doctor Who: The Writer's Tale - The Final Chapter

There are many hundreds of books about writing some of them are very good indeed. When I taught creative writing at university, I used to wax lyrical about Stephen Kings On Writing, but also about E.M Forsters Aspects of the Novel and Dorothea Brandes Becoming a Writer. To that inestimable list I can now add The Writers Tale by Doctor Who head Russell T Davies.When this book first appeared in 2008, it was hailed as a masterpiece. Included in top ten lists at the end of the year, appearing on

"I only write to find out about myself, and I'll only achieve that if I'm honest."I'd always admired Davies. I was a big Doctor Who fan; while I enjoyed Moffit's tenure as show-runner, Davies will always be *my* writer (well...possibly him and Cartmel). But to get an inside glimpse of Davies' process...to have another writer, and a damn good one, talk about his struggles, his fears, his procrastinations--as well as his triumphs and successes...I just don't think there's another book on writing

I learned so much about writing in these 700 pages. I fell in love, the out of love, then in love again with RTD. I got sick of Doctor Who. Then I wanted to watch it all over again. I wanted Benjamin Cook to just fucking admit if he likes dudes or not. My brains are leaking out of my ears. I want to write another little show. Oh god. OH GOD.

When I first scanned through this book's sample to see if I'd like it, I was intrigued by the format. A TV writer and a journalist (in other words, two writers) bouncing emails about the process of writing back and forth? Oh, but if you take it at that value alone there's so much to be missed!If you're looking for a straightforward "how to write a hit television sci-fi show," you're not going to be happy. Nor is this about the philosophy of writing, of television, nor an exegesis on thee

I'm a huge fan of Russell T. Davies' big, epic writing in the new Doctor Who, so as a writer I welcomed this chance to peek inside his head, through his email correspondence with journalist Benjamin Cook. What I found surprised me, enlivened me, heartened me; made me laugh and cry and say, "yes, I know that exactly!" He's candid, sordid, "big and blousy," and funny. He doesn't sugar coat things; many parts are painfully honest.But here unfolds the twin story of one of the most successful shows
