sherlock60 | This Sunday for 60 for 60: The Retired Colourman

Hi, everyone. Are you ready for the weekend again and a new story? This week, we're reading and writing about The Retired Colourman, the very last canon story published. A miserly old man's wife disappears along with his friend and a box of securities. What seems like a dull matter at first becomes infinitely more interesting to Holmes when Watson goes digging around the case.

Haven't joined us for 60 for 60 before? We'd love to have you jump in too! Everyone is welcome. You can learn more here (including the schedule), but the basics are easy: read the story, then write a 60 word ficlet inspired by it. That's it! It's fun, it's quick and you'll love reading both the wonderful classic canon and the terrific variety of fic we all come up with. Come have fun with us! See you Sunday!

Special Note: We're coming up on The Sign of the Four next month on April 22. It's our second novel and we'll be covering the whole thing that week. Now might be the time to start reading.
