Simon Guerrier

Simon Guerrier is a British science fiction author and dramatist, closely associated with the fictional universe of "Doctor Who" and its spinoffs. Although he has written one "Doctor Who" novel, "The Time Travellers", for the BBC Books Past Doctor Adventures range, his work has mostly been for Big Finish Productions' audio drama and book ranges.

Guerrier's earliest published fiction appeared in ', the first of Big Finish's "Short Trips" range of "Doctor Who" short story anthologies. To date, his work has appeared in the majority of the "Short Trips" collections. He has also edited three volumes in the series, ', ' and '. The second of these takes as its starting-point Guerrier's short story "An Overture Too Early" in "", and explains its background, with considerable elaboration and digression along the way. The third anthology featured stories entirely by previously unpublished writers.

After contributing two stories to the anthology "Life During Wartime" in Big Finish's Bernice Summerfield range of books and audio dramas, Guerrier was invited to edit the subsequent year's short story collection, "A Life Worth Living", and the novella collection "Parallel Lives". As of 2006, after also contributing two audio dramas to the series, Guerrier is the Range Editor for the various Bernice Summerfield lines.

His other "Doctor Who" work is an audio drama, "The Settling", in Big Finish's "Doctor Who" audio range, and a contribution to the "UNIT" spinoff series. He has also written a play in Big Finish's "Sapphire and Steel" range.

Guerrier's work is characterised by character-driven humour and by an interest in unifying the continuity of the various Big Finish ranges through multiple references and reappearances of characters. As editor he has been a strong promoter of the work of various script writers from the Seventh Doctor era of the "Doctor Who" television series.
