Paul Cornell

Thanks!

That was an excellently thoughtful episode, and I’m totally with @paulcornell.bsky.social re Wizzard’s I wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day.

Great stuff.

Thank you for including me, and I hope you feel stronger soon.

I'm sorry to report that my panel about the Marvel book at Blackwell's in Oxford on the 10th has been rescheduled by the bookshop to sometime next year. (I thought it was a bit odd we were doing that amid the Christmas rush.)

Lovelies, I am not feeling too good, so for today's Tea and Sanctuary advent calendar I am going to leave you in the gentle care of the wonderful @paulcornell.bsky.social who has been kind enough to record an episode to keep you company.

Good choice; we can recommend the Friendship Camper Van Adventure set, especially for its working flushing toilet

It’s the title of my autobiography

I love this so much!

Well, I think he has, but that’s all Santa’s got to go on.

We've only got his word for it though, eh?

I'm 100% going to start using, "I have been excellent in all areas." :D

My son's letter to Father Christmas.

My son Tom has written his letter to Father Christmas. I like the official tone, including instructions as to what Santa's operational window is, and the note that Thomas has been excellent in all areas.

Thanks so much!

Every now and then I think I wouldn’t mind giving corruption a go.

The money would’ve only corrupted you. You’re better off. Trust me.

But that prince was going to send me millions of dollars!

The day has finally come. Just got my first scam email meant for @paulcornell.bsky.social. Took the bullet for you, Paul. 😂

"Mr Jones’s Smoking Bones"

“An extraordinary work. It feels like nobody’s written any previous comics and a master stylist has started anew without reference to genre or medium. In other words, Iqbal Ali is the new Alan Moore.” - @paulcornell.bsky.social
