Title: Carry On Jo Author: Orba the Greek Rating: All ages / PG Word Count: 601 Characters: Third Doctor, Jo Grant Setting / Era: Ancient Cyprus, BC 50s Humorous ficlet (but with some genuine historical info nonetheless).

Title: Stradivarius Author: moonmama Rating: All ages Word Count: 2369 Characters: Eighth Doctor, Lucie Miller Setting / Era: Vienna, 1811 This is a gorgeously written short fic – one of those that Big Finish so foolishly turned down recently.
