Sherlock60: The Story Continues... with "The Beryl Coronet"

[scfrankles.livejournal.com]

This Sunday, 19th April, we'll be posting our 60 word ficlets for The Beryl Coronet.

Alexander Holder has accepted the Beryl Coronet as security for a bank loan and, reluctant to let it out of his sight, has taken it home with him. In the night, three of the "thirty-nine enormous beryls" (oh, how I want to set up a Sherlock Holmes theatre group, just so we can call ourselves "39 Enormous Beryls"...) are stolen - apparently by Holder's wastrel son. Can Holmes recover the gems and uncover the truth? Join us on Sunday to find out.

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 ^^
