I cannot take credit for this at all, but it's one of Gord Zajac's witty pieces of writing which should be shared. Zajac talks about the connection we all have towards stories and storytelling and the resulting feeling of loss when those stories aren't there. He also delves into how much those stories have impacted his writing. It's also about Doctor Who not being on SPACE last weekend.

Great blog post, as always.

*NB While I had nothing to do with the blog, book and certainly get nothing from the sales, in the interests of full-disclosure, I will declare that there is a character named after me in the book.
