I think he will really appreciate your saying.. "in Ross's case -- his output and energies have placed him in a class few Sherlockians or Holmesians ever achieve." We totally concur on this thought.

I'm very certain that whatever I contribute to the fandom has to be because the words need to be let out of my head. If someone offered me a very large, life-changing, sum of money to never write about Sherlock Holmes ever again, I couldn't take it because I know I wouldn't be able to stick to the deal. Shrug. But I can see why Ross or someone would like to know that they are writing for readers not just sending words into the ether. You can become burned out from it though and need to spend time on something else to enjoy other scenery, have a break to come back refreshed. I think you can take the fan out of Sherlock Holmes but not the Sherlock Holmes out of the fan.Mortonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11680065341255234245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6512050174377678428.post-13932341695422451732016-02-27T06:55:19.755-06:002016-02-27T06:55:19.755-06:00Aw.

The number of Sherlock blogs I used to follow gets smaller every month. <br /><br />On tumblr most of the more intelligent/educated bloggers who actually had something interesting to say have left long ago (S3). What's left now is squeeing about the length of Martin Freeman's lashes and stupid headcanons about Johnlock. Nothing wrong with that in itself, but not really interesting reading material.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04066417080920042579noreply@blogger.com
