But never fear, for Costello is still here! I'm going to tide you guys over with a short story I wrote awhile back. Enjoy! Or not. You know. Whatever.

It was a lonely, quiet, grey day when he came. I wasn’t
expecting it at all. I had woken up in my normal way, gotten dressed and fed
the turtle the same way as all the other days before. I guess what was special
about today was that it was Christmas here in London .
I was alone in my flat this year. All of my family had gone
to Prague ,
leaving me here because I couldn’t afford it. I had no significant other, and
no friends or other family here. I had moved from Bath
to London just
after I finished high school and was about to start college.
I decided to go out for coffee. I don’t know what pushed me
to do it, but something in the air told me that I would like a nice Christmas-y
themed frothy drink from Starbucks.
As I was walking out of the coffee shop, I looked at the
corner and saw a man in a brown suit leaning against a blue box. Our eyes
caught, and I dropped my coffee. He winked and walked into the TARDIS, leaving
it slightly open.
I had nothing to do today. So why not travel with a
900-year-old alien?
I ran towards the box, a huge smile on my face. I made it
just in time to hear the TARDIS make its signature sounds.

Because who doesn't love a bit of Doctor Who, eh? I'm going to be working on a few posts the rest of this week, and most likely post them next week. Sorry for such a delay! Thanks for being patient!
