[holmesticemods]

Thank you so much for another wonderful round of Holmestice! The mods want to say THANK YOU to all the creators who joined us this round. Being in this community with you is a joy and an honour.

Reveals and the Master List go up on June 21st. Until then, please enjoy and comment on all the lovely fanworks. (If you haven't thanked your creator for your own gift yet, please do!) Creators, please do NOT respond to Dreamwidth comments or post your works elsewhere on the Internet until reveals go up in the community. You may of course reply to comments on AO3, which preserves your anonymity.

In the meanwhile, stay tuned: treats are coming up! For anyone thinking of making a treat, we will accept treats until reveals, so if there's a prompt that inspires you, please have at it! Just use the regular submission guidelines and send your headers to holmesticemods@gmail.com.

If you'd like to guess who created what in this round, here's a list of all the contributors for the main gifts. (You'll have to put in some extra work to guess the treat-makers!) Go ahead and take a guess! It's all in good fun.

[graycardinal]

A minor technical point: The Kincardine File was purest ACD (with a very slight nod toward the Kurland 'verse, as eventually noted in comments), though I'll grant you that that set of correspondence could reasonably be attributed to the Without A Clue characters as well.

Mind you, what strikes me as really interesting relative to the "Box One" authorship puzzle is T. Rhymer's comment on that story, which raises some interesting questions.

[rachelindeed]

Oh, thank you for the correction, I'm sorry to have misremembered! I think my brain mixed up 'Kincardine' with 'Kincaid' and my memory of the playful, humorous tone of the tale just had me accepting my WaC mistake. I do love that story, even if I had the verse a little confused <3333

Yes, wasn't that a lovely compliment from T. Rhymer? The highest praise! I've given up on guessing their identity, but perhaps this once I will join you in suspecting an absent gardnerhill XD She's getting guessed even more often when she's not a participant than when she is, lol! Her reach is long, and her myth is rising into legend...
