At first, I found it difficult to rewrite this finale. I liked it just as it was. Originally, the big reveal was completely different, and it may be obvious at the end where and why the change was made. Since I had rewritten the part of the Eleventh Doctor for the Fourth, it opened up … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Nine

Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Eight
8. Reality I am an old man now – I can feel it with each minute movement of my frail and failing body. I ponder the realities of being able to count my remaining years on the fingers of my hands, or perhaps even just one hand. As I reflect back on the events I … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Eight
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Seven
I don't dislike seeing children portrayed as something malevolent - in fact, it frightens me a bit. I just don't prefer it. It smacks of something supernatural. It brings to mind Children of the Corn, Village of the Damned, the Omen, among others. Ooo, or how about Ju-On? I see a child as having no … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Seven
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Six
Originally, I wrote this with the 11th Doctor. It seemed easier at the time. In the television series, they had just made the transition to Matt Smith from David Tennant and I was already a fan of the bow-tied Timelord. While reading through this for a new publication on this blog, I made a startling … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Six
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Five
I warned you - several times in fact. I won't apologize. You will notice that the style begins to deteriorate from what was originally what I consider to be a very skillful representation of the tone and rhythm of the original Doyle adventures. I considered this as I wrote it, and, as you will glean … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Five
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Four
It's not that I didn't want to complete this story in Doyle's style - I was enjoying the challenge. The truth is that an idea came to me that I could not let go of. It nagged at the back of my mind until, slowly, it began to corrupt the beautiful little fan fiction I … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Four
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Three
Hmm ... Still seems like a Sherlock Holmes story ... I continue to connect this story with events played out in several of Doyle's pieces, and yet, something smells fishy ... almost jellyfish sticky. 3. A Web of Deceit My friend began to exhibit the usual symptoms of keen interest in strange circumstances. His gait … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Three
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Two
I would venture to say that fans of fan fiction are a ferociously fickle faction of feral freaks. They tend to be too forgiving of continuity flaws, and to quick to give credit to blatant and predictable repetition. I respect the fan fictioneer that writes a story from a secondary character's point of view, or … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode Two
Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode One
Being in somewhat of a frantic explosion of creativity, I find it difficult to form a cohesive story to post here on a regular basis. Rest assured, the creative process has not been hampered, nor have I run into obstacles that will prevent me from continuing to write. No, it simply the case that I … Continue reading Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Prime Machine – Episode One
