This Sunday, 2nd July, we'll be posting our 60 word ficlets for The Three Gables.
I don't think that any of my adventures with Mr. Sherlock Holmes opened quite so abruptly, or so dramatically, as that which I associate with The Three Gables. Holmes and Watson are warned off a case in Harrow Weald. Just why is there so much interest in the client's house and its contents..?
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, where we discuss a topic inspired by the canon story. And there’s Mrs. Hudson's Poetry Page too - any poems written about this week’s story can be left as a comment on her post. Her housemaid Rachel usually suggests a poem for us to read but this week she's come up with something slightly different... And there will also be a new poetry form to try: the descort.
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. But don’t worry if you can’t join us then - we stay open for posting and commenting all week!
