Countdown to NNWM 2012 − 25 Days!

25 days until the start of NNWM


I hold any writer sufficiently justified who is himself in love with his theme.

~ Henry James

Theme is the answer to your story’s question. As simple and as big as that, Nano Writer. What’s yours?

For some unknown reason I found myself thinking of Holmes this morning after I woke. Specifically I was thinking it would be interesting to read a story in which he is presented as being on the autism spectrum. Aspies are often seen as lacking in empathy when the disconnect is in how they express the empathy. I'm thinking that could fit in a Holmes Story. (I haven't read any of them in quite a while, so I can't be certain how good a fit it would be)

I think that could fit very well into a Holmes story! I've read one or two that are based on the new BBC series rather than the original ACD stories; unfortunately, at the moment, I can only find two: Lost Words by Qwyzm and Mine by a Right by too many stars to count. Unfortunately I couldn't find the one I was looking for, a longer one that went into some more detail, but these two are both brilliant as well. Fair warning: Lost Words is a WIP still in its early days, and unfortunately the updates are slow.
