I'd been aware of DW for some time, and somehow it just seemed like the time to give it a go. There were a few VHSes at the local video rental.

"The Pirate Planet" because it was Four (most recognizable) and written by Douglas Addams.

1. Do you write fanfic for Doctor Who?
Yes.
1a. If so, post a snippet of a work-in-progress (or several)!
I have is this Sapphire & Steel x-over that's like a year old now:
"Whoever heard of a Time Lord with amnesia? No, there's something else going on here.” Suddenly Steel's expression darkened. “Time Lords,” he almost spat the title. “With their Time Wars, leaving us, our kind, to pick up the pieces.” The wood of the railing cracked ominously under his grip.
And then the embriotic stage my Time War ficcage is still at:
"Doctor, this isn't just one of your little adventures that you'll solve in less than a day. This is a war. Your dazzling wit is not going to be enough to keep you alive."
