Hi, @michaelharp1, Thank you for your kind words about the posts. If you are a fan of #ArthurConanDoyle and/or #SherlockHolmes, then you might find something of interest in my posts. Otherwise, it is other long-dead authors of the long 19th century, dogs, poetry, and #VanGogh.

Remembering #ArthurConanDoyle on the anniversary of his death with only a few words but they are sincere ones. (And a little bit of fiction.)

Why #DrWatson might not be my favorite doctor/author at the moment.

I've spent the last 14 months with #ArthurConanDoyle, #SherlockHolmes and the two manuscripts.
Now it is time to decide what is next but, perhaps, a few days off first.

Best thing I read today:
"...but then he is a poet, which I take to be only one remove from a fool."
"True," said Dupin..."although I have been guilty of certain doggerel myself."
(Me, too, Dupin. 👀)
Reading #EdgarAllanPoe instead of #ArthurConanDoyle & #SherlockHolmes today.

Heute ist der Geburtstag eines großartigen Schriftstellers, und dank British Library Sounds kann man von Sir Arthur Conan Doyle höchstpersönlich erfahren, wie er auf die Idee der Abenteuer des Sherlock Holmes kam.

Unlike #SherlockHolmes, I can congratulate you upon your having "embodied it in a small brochure."

Not one I use often so I spent some time researching the fullest meaning of the word.
This definition from Oxford English Dictionary (on line) is exactly what I'm looking for:
b. An immaterial or spectral appearance of a living being, frequently regarded as portending that person's death; a fetch.
Glad to see #ArthurConanDoyle used it.
