Coming this Sunday at Sherlock60: Charles Augustus Milverton

[spacemutineer.livejournal.com]

Hello, friends! Welcome back. For this Sunday's canon reading and writing pleasure, we have an exciting story you won't want to miss: Charles Augustus Milverton. Sherlock Holmes invites to Baker Street one of the most reprehensible people on the planet, a blackmailer with no qualms or morals who lives to profit off others' suffering. The law can do nothing. Is there any way a man like this can be stopped?

We'll be discussing the Granada TV adaptation of this story, The Master Blackmailer, as well on Sunday. You can catch it on YouTube, Hulu, Netflix, Amazon Video, and DVD.

Here are your completely optional prompts for CHAS. Feel free to use one, both, or neither.

Optional prompt #1: A letter.

Optional prompt #2: Care for some AU? Change one thing in the story and see what happens.

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! Thanks, see you Sunday!
