Welcome to the NEW site of the Sherlock Fandom newsletter! Highlighting ways to connect and enjoy community. The inbox is OPEN for suggested events, discord channels to share, or anything that seems newsworthy!
I want to start with a huge THANK YOU! to everyone who has begun to reach out this year, as I noticed a big shift in Feb. All of this I post for fun monthly and love to say hi!
Why the move? My main blog is *ehem* highly specific, and I was originally afraid that people would not interact with me because of that? but the Sherlock community is amazing - and contradicted that trend. I still, ultimately, wanted this to be a free space to share more and to not feel that hesitation! Also! As I am not omniscient or omnipresent (and am easily distracted by shiny objects); please do share a link or post even if you THINK I may have seen it (as I mayn't have)!
TLDR: 🌹WELCOME and THRICE WELCOME!
