Calling all Whovian, non-Whovians, wannabe Whovians, and shall-never-be-Whovians!

I'm doing a Doctor Who themed blog series on the Idea Factory next month. The catch is that I need a bunch of guest writers in order to make it work. The basic premise is that the world is full of remarkable people, and that they don't have to be two-hearted aliens in order to change our lives. The series is called "Who is your Doctor?" and I'd like readers to write in their own stories of the various Doctor's in their lives. However, since I have a fairly (very) small readership I thought I'd do some recruiting before hand.

You do not have to have seen the show, or enjoy the show, to write for this series. You do, however, have to know enough about the Doctor to know what on the face of the planet I'm talking about. (Obviously.) If you're interested or would like more details drop me a PM or reply to this thread. Spread the word around! I'd like at least four articles lined up before I launch the series, and then we'll see where it goes from there.

It sounds like one of those essays you do for school about who's influenced your life. Is that right?

@Varon: Yes, but in a more specific way. I have two Doctors; one actually influenced my life and the other one is simply my occasional dance partner.

@Andi: You don't really have to, if you don't want to. You could put them together, and show how they make up different aspects of your life in a Doctor-ish kind of way. :D

Definitely interested. Do we have to start calling dibs on Doctors?

I *might* (emphasis on "might") be able to write something... I'll have to try to think of something...

If you could PM me a little more DW info, I'll try to think up something after work this evening.

Hehehe... since the idea is to write about real life Doctors I don't think we have to worry about that.

If ya'll want more detail or elaboration or out-right examples, feel free to shoot me an e-mail or PM and I'll talk up a storm.
