sherlock60 | Sherlock60: The Story Continues... with "The Crooked Man"

This Sunday, 21st June, we'll be posting our 60 word ficlets for The Crooked Man.

It's almost midnight and Holmes has apparently popped round to deduce Watson and his household. But he eventually comes to the point and tells Watson about his latest case.

Colonel Barclay of the Royal Munsters has been found dead, seemingly murdered - his wife was heard arguing bitterly with him only moments before. Is Mrs. Barclay the murderer? Where is the missing key to the locked room? And who is "David"?

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 ^^
