The sign-ups are now open!

If you want to take part in the exchange (and have a Dreamwidth account), all you have to do is join the Dreamwidth community and create a new post using the template below with your offer and request. The template is designed to be used with the HTML editor (not the Rich Text editor).

If you do not want a Dreamwidth account, you can leave your sign-up as a comment on this post, either using the "Anonymous" option or by using your LJ OpenID. If you choose to use the Anonymous option, please make sure you correctly fill in all the identifying info in the template, so we know who signed up and how to contact you.



The sign-up template below includes ratings for what you're willing to create and would like to receive. Sexual content is deliberately separated from violence and other mature themes, so if you are someone who enjoys PWP but not violence, you have an easy way of indicating that (or vice versa) for the mods and other Holmestice participants.

The template also includes a list of suggested Holmesian fandoms and iterations. This is not an exhaustive list -- if you have another fandom in mind, please include it in your sign up! Alternatively, if you're open to offering or receiving any Holmesian fandom, please feel free to say so. (Although do make clear what you mean by "any" -- very few people truly can offer every pastiche, film, television, radio, and graphic novel adaptation ever made!)

Please note when putting down relationships:
  • "/" (e.g., "Holmes/Watson") indicates a romantic or sexual relationship
  • "&" (e.g., "Holmes & Watson") indicates a friendship or other platonic/fraternal/non-sexual/non-romantic relationship

Do please make sure you're using / and & correctly in your sign-ups, as we use it to determine matches, and your match will use it to determine what sort of relationships to write for you.

Sign-up Template )


You can edit your post until sign-ups close on April 6. Anything you add or delete after that will not be taken into account.

All stories must be a minimum of 1,000 words in length; icon posts must contain at least 10 icons; vids must be at least one minute in length. Any type of fanwork is required to go through some kind of beta process. All finished fanworks must be posted to AO3 and/or sent to the mods at holmesticemods(at)gmail(dot)com on or before May 25th. Directions on how to post/submit your work will be posted to the community later in the round. If you don't submit your work by the due date and have not contacted us for an extension, we will automatically look for a pinch hitter.

If you need your recipient to clarify their prompt or ask if they're all right with that one particular thing you'd like to include, please contact us at holmesticemods(at)gmail(dot)com, and we'll forward the question for you to preserve your anonymity.

Please remember that if you sign up to receive a gift, it'll only be fair if you create one as well. That said, if you have to drop out of the exchange for any reason, please contact one of the moderators as soon as possible by e-mailing us at holmesticemods(at)gmail(dot)com so we can find a pinch hitter to create a gift for your intended recipient.

If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to reach out!

I will create:

A fanwork of the following type(s): fic, podfic

In one or more of the following parts of fandom (new ones in boldface): Try me – I’ve written in just about every version of Holmes from Doyle to Elementary, including the damn mice. Books: Doyle - Canon; The Seven-Percent Solution. TV/Film: Granada TV Show; Ritchie Films; Elementary; Russian Holmes (all versions, including the film My Dearly Beloved Detective); Rathbone Films; Sherlock Holmes in the 22nd Century; Basil of Baker Street/Great Mouse Detective; Miss Sherlock. Comics/radio/other: Watson and Holmes comic books; Bert Coules radio dramatizations; “Oklahomo” (the Norwegian parody); Tuzars Lego Holmes film here: <https://www.youtube.com/user/lluukkyy28>, Spookhouse Theater's 3-part Puppet!Holmes series (which can be found on YouTube here: Episode 1, Episode 2 and Episode 3); Whale!Holmes from Muppets Tonight! (seen here at the 7m30s mark). More Guideline than Rule: NO BBC SHERLOCK. Though I like and have written in BBC Sherlock fandom before (and have waived this for a few offerings), I like throwing a bit of variety into this mix. If your favored form of Holmesiana is a highly obscure offering (the 1920 silent film, the “S(her)Lock” YouTube series, etc.), send me a link to where I can see or read it.

For one or more of the following relationships: Holmes & Watson, Holmes/Watson; Holmes/Watson/Mary; Watson/Mary. Elementary – LockBell, JoanBell, Sherlock/Ms Hudson, Alfredo/Ms Hudson, Joan/Ms Hudson, Sherlock & Joan (i.e., no Joanlock). Miss Sherlock – Sherlock & Wato, Sherlock/Wato. Great Mouse Detective – Basil & David, Basil/David.

I like working with one or more of the following categories: Fluff; Angst; Post-Reichenbach; Alternate Universe (I’ve got about 20 AUs going, just pick one!); Romance; Hurt/Comfort; Established Relationship; Crossover; Friendship; Humor; First Time; Friendship; Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence; Bondage

With any of the following ratings: 1) suitable for general audiences; 2) non-explicit sexual content; 3) explicit sexual content; 4) mild to moderate violence or depictions of non-sexual mature themes.

I am willing to create for the following squicks and/or kinks: bondage; BDSM; character death.

My recording technology is limited, so any podfic would be a plain reading of whichever story you want – i.e., no musical accompaniment or special effects. But I am a good reader.

I want to receive:

A fanwork of the following type(s): art, fic, vids, podfic

In one or more of the following parts of fandom: Books: Canon; The Seven-Percent Solution; A Study in Emerald; The Doctor's Case. TV/Film: Granada TV Show; Ritchie Films; Elementary; all the Russian Holmes (1980s/2013/ My Dearly Beloved Detective); Mystery Queen (modern Korean Seol Ok and Wan Seung); Miss Sherlock (modern Japanese all-female version); Rathbone Films; Sherlock Holmes in the 22nd Century; Watson and Holmes comic books; Great Mouse Detective/Basil of Baker Street. Comics/radio/other: Watson and Holmes comic; Bert Coules radio dramatizations. …Again, I’d prefer any non-BBC Sherlock offering. While I love BBC Sherlock, we must restore balance to the Force. Again, if you have an even more obscure Holmes version I'll very likely be up for it; contact the mods and they'll contact me.

For one or more of the following relationships: Any level of Holmes and Watson's attachment, from dearest of old friends through Watson's multiple marriages, to the kinkiest homosexual bastards never arrested in Victorian England. Holmes/Watson; Holmes & Watson; Watson/Mary; Holmes/Watson/Mary; Holmes/Hopkins; Elementary – LockBell, JoanBell, Sherlock/Ms Hudson, Joan/Ms Hudson, Alfredo/Ms Hudson, Sherlock & Joan (i.e., no Joanlock). Miss Sherlock – Sherlock & Wato, Sherlock/Wato. GMD – Basil & David, Basil/David.

I like stuff in the following categories: Fluff; Angst; Post-Reichenbach; Alternate Universe; Romance; Hurt/Comfort; Established Relationship; Crossover; Friendship; Humor; Case Fic; First Time; Friendship; Drug Addiction; Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence; Bondage

With any of the following ratings: 1) suitable for general audiences; 2) non-explicit sexual content; 3) explicit sexual content; 4) mild to moderate violence or depictions of non-sexual mature themes; 5) moderate to explicit graphic violence or depictions of non-sexual mature themes
s
I wouldn’t mind any of the following squicks and/or kinks: Bondage, BDSM, character death, aftermath of torture (not the torture itself).

Please include further details about what you’d like to receive: I love podfics; I’ve gotten some gorgeous art based on my work and would be pleased to receive such an offering, especially based on my Pirate AU A Study in Crimson; I don’t mind “aftermath of torture” stuff but no graphic volumes of torture porn – i.e., I want less of the hurt and more of the comfort; If you’ve got original characters you want to involve, have at it as long as you don’t completely trash Watson's character to do so (I'm looking at YOU, Beekeeper’sApprentice).

Special requests: I’d like to try just about any non-BBC Sherlock version out there. I think I’m up for anything. If you’ve got a personal fave that you don’t see listed above, give it a stab anyway! Just give me a way to find the offering (YouTube, link to story, etc.) I'm also happy to receive an offering that highlights little-used characters that deserve more attention (Violet Hunter in Canon, Constable Clarkie in Ritchie!Verse, Alfredo Llamosa & Ms. Hudson in Elementary, Inspector Reimon & Sgt. Shibata in Miss Sherlock, etc.)
