sherlock60 | Sherlock60: The Story Continues... with "The Sussex Vampire"

This Sunday, 30th November, we'll be posting our 60 word ficlets for The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire.

Holmes is asked to investigate a case of vampirism by an old rugby chum of Watson's. (Startling, I know. I mean, who would have thought Watson had played rugby for Blackheath? It's no wonder Holmes is impressed.)

And so let us enter this Grimms' fairy tale together - a unsettling story of a mother feasting on her own child...

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.

We also offer a second challenge: pick a character from ACD’s story and write a clerihew about them. You can choose to write a 60 and a clerihew, or you can do one or the other. (There's further information about posting on our profile.) Or you can just take part in the weekly discussion. All options are absolutely fine!

Hope to see you on Sunday ^^
