Our OUTSIDE IN range editor, Stacey Smith?, has a message for you:
Calling all aspiring and experienced writers! Have you ever wanted to write a review of a Classic Doctor Who episode that’s as gonzo as possible? Well, now’s your chance!
E-mail Stacey Smith? with a pitch for one of the available slots for OUTSIDE IN REGENERATES, which will revisit the entire classic era of Doctor Who from 1963 to 1996 that was originally covered in our first OUTSIDE IN ten years ago. You can find the list of available slots and detailed guidelines for submissions at this link.
One of the goals of the OUTSIDE IN series is to give a voice to those who have never yet been published, so if you haven’t done this before, that’s OK. We’re open to pitches from the experienced writer to the first-timer. Just bring your passion for Doctor Who, and your big ideas, and send Stacey a one-paragraph pitch for how you’d like to approach your episode/story and what you want to say about it. You can pitch for several open slots if you’d like; the best one will be chosen.
Upcoming volumes of OUTSIDE IN will cover modern Doctor Who from the end of the Peter Capaldi era (after “Last Christmas”) through the 60th anniversary in 2023, as well as the full runs of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Babylon 5. If you’re interested in participating in any of those volumes, you can contact Stacey directly to inquire about openings in those collections as well.
