Doing some serious reading this afternoon. I'm not goofing off. I really do need a reminder of these events. I'm not complaining because it is always a fun read.

Sometimes the internet just doesn’t understand working out the options on foot 125 years ago…so, old school it is. With a little help from another #Sherlockian who did all the sorting and map building. Feeling lucky.

After weeks away & 1 week getting caught up , it feels great to start writing a #Gothic collection. Not #SherlockHolmes but will be inspired by him. Every lead character will be someone Holmes has affected. For example, the first was Neville St. Clair from TWIS. Book #6 is underway....
It is so loud in this airport terminal my earbuds couldn’t over come it. I turned off the music and now have industrial ear plugs in use. Still too loud. In addition to all the competing announcements, the slot machines are very loud, and the next guy over is an hour into his phone call on speaker.
#Sherlockian Geoff Jeffrey hired a Brit bookbinder. Look at the leather bound copy of classic soft bound work from Julie McKuras Ray Riethmeier Tim Johnson @philbergem.bsky.social. Also, he had custom cases made for his ARC copies of all 3 of Leslie S Klinger's annotated volumes in paperback.
Excellent! Time to gather all our former #SherlockHolmes folks from Twitter together.

Oh, @stevewood.bsky.social — I’m jealous! 🤗
I was fortunate to read an ARC awhile ago--the lead character is very interesting, and the noir is just fun. Check it out...
It was 10,000 in the end. I think the readers will like it. On to the next & last story in this collection. I've promised myself I'll finish this manuscript by next Wednesday morning. I've got about 10,000 more words to go.

Well, this is an 8,000 word story. #writing #SherlockHolmes pastiche is complicated by my love of #gothic. The story must be atmospheric but still fair to the mystery reader. Sometimes that takes a few words. My readers (thankfully) seem to be patient with such story telling.
