Sherlock60: The Story Continues... with "The Sign of Four", Chaps. 1 - 6

[scfrankles.livejournal.com]

Well, Week 1 of Round 4 was a roaring success! And we hope you'll join us again for Week 2 ^^ (Please do feel free to continue posting 60s and poems for Week 1, by the way.)

This Sunday, 25th January, we'll be posting our 60 word ficlets for the first half of The Sign of Four.

Holmes is quite simply desperate for a case. Right on cue, enter one Miss Mary Morstan...

If you haven't tried 60 for 60 before, full information - including our schedule - can be found on our profile. But in essence: you read ACD's story and then you write a 60 word story inspired by it! You don't have to post a story every week - just join in whenever you feel like it.

Each Sunday we will also have our weekly discussion post and Mrs. Hudson's Poetry Page. Any poems inspired by this week’s story can be left as a comment on her post.

You can choose one activity, or have a go at everything. Or just come along and read the 60s! (And have a chat in the comments ^^) All options are absolutely fine.

Hope to see you on Sunday ^^

The Sherlock Holmes’s Test

My propositus gave no indication of being startled by my wild display of excitement. In fact, he greeted me in so cordial a manner, one could have believed us then to be more than acquaintances, let alone complete strangers. After passing the Sherlock Holmes’s test, Watson became not only my cohabitor, but, more importantly, an invaluable colleague and my friend.
