Falling Out of Love With BBC Sherlock

Yesterday there was a fake birth announcement for Rosamund Mary Watson in The Telegraph. A promo picture of John and Mary with the baby was also released. Expectedly, the fandom exploded. I, however, realised that I just DGAF anymore. My strong suspicion is that the baby (like every other character in the show) will just be a prop whose only function is to facilitate a twist in a plot that has been meandering off course for some time. The “I love you” trailer didn’t move the needle much for me either.

The truth is I fell out of love with Sherlock at the end of season 3 but couldn’t really admit it to myself. When that Moriarty animation turned up asking, “Did you miss me?” my answer was an emphatic no. Whenever a show doubles back to the vanquished supervillain to pique our interest, don’t we all know deep in our hearts that it’s over, that things aren’t really moving forward? I tried to keep my hopes up even after The Abominable Bride (which I would have enjoyed more had they just done the Victorian one-off). Explaining away huge chunks of a story that you spent millions of pounds producing with “It was all a dream!” is another huge red flag that the writers are running out of interesting ideas.

BEFORE HOLMES MET WATSON: New Cover Reveal

12/8/2016

BEFORE HOLMES MET WATSON is doing really well on Wattpad and is closing in on 15,000 reads! I've gone through a few covers and never really been pleased with any of them. So, today I finally sat down and did a redesign. My design skills are limited, but keeping it simple has worked well for me, and I'm pleased with how the new cover turned out. Can't wait until I can afford to hire a proper designer, though.

I'm self-published, but I've recently been considering querying agents again. Today I stumbled across the #PitMad tag in my Twitter timeline, and decided submitting the maximum three tweets was worth the minimal effort.

Here are my tweets:

#Sherlock's a bare-knuckle boxing sleuth with no cases & a drug problem. John's surviving a war. #PitMad #M #A #LGBT https://t.co/ndiqg2Avgg
