His Last Bow

Sportsman

G

“In England we call it the Great Game, Herr Von Bork: a contest of wits and of strategy. You may console yourself with having been bested by the finest sportsmen we could put up against you.”

“Sportsmen?! Surely, only you...”

“My sports are boxing and fencing. I work as a team, with a sole teammate, only at this particular Game."

This Sunday for 60 for 60: The Adventure of the Lion's Mane

[spacemutineer.livejournal.com]

Hello again. Just a quick reminder that this Sunday's new story will be The Adventure of the Lion's Mane. Even post-retirement (and sadly post-Watson), Sherlock Holmes can't help but be what he is: a detective. Into his quiet life on the Dover cliffs staggers a dying man with inexplicable last words and Holmes is back once again on the trail of another strange mystery.

Haven't joined us for 60 for 60 before? We'd love to have you jump in too! Everyone is welcome. You can learn more here (including the schedule), but the basics are easy: read the story, then write a 60 word ficlet inspired by it. That's it! It's fun, it's quick and you'll love reading both the wonderful classic canon and the terrific variety of fic we all come up with. Come have fun with us! See you Sunday!
