Sherlolly Appreciation Week 2024

Get excited Sherlollians because a new appreciation week is on its way! This will be our 10th year in a row of celebrating our favorite science nerds – I can’t believe we have been doing this for 10 years!!! My little nerd heart is so happy you are all still here celebrating with me!

This year we are focusing on your favorite Sherlolly moments, both canon and those headcanons or moments found in fanfics and fanart. Please feel free to use the prompts however you are inspired, meaning the canon prompts do not have to lead to creations that are still canon compliant, nor do you simply have to “answer” the question of the Headcanon prompt…let your creativity fly! I want to see all of the meta, GIF sets, photo edits or manips, fanart, and fanfiction pieces you can create!

Keep an eye out for the tag: ‘sherlollyweek2024’. I will post any updates or news about the appreciation week under that tag! That will also be the tag that you use when you post your response to the daily prompts. Can’t wait to see what you lovelies come up with!

From Winter meme:

✏️ The first fanfiction you ever wrote? (doesn’t have to be a posted fic)

Hm, I think it might have been Jarod/Miss Parker fic I wrote in my native language when I was a teen. Gah, but that was an OTP for me back then. It's unfinished, unpublished, about 12k words, and it's both horribly bad and not so bad either, lol. I have reread it recently as I've been browsing that fandom in the last few months.

From Reader meme:

✏️ Ever gotten inspired to write your own fic after reading someone elses?

That's a difficult question to answer, because I don't think I've ever written anything because of reading something aka a prequel/sequel etc, but I have definitely...imagined other stories or variations or run permutations (in my head) of what if scenarios based on stories I've read. I also tend to write plots that I haven't found, like I want a certain, precise scenario, and if I can't find it, after reading like all the fics there are, I generally might end up writing it myself.

[ao3commentoftheday]

life's too short to write for an imaginary critic that you fear will hate what you wrote

[ao3commentoftheday]

to be clear, odds are good that someone will hate what you wrote, but that doesn't mean the writing is bad. That means they aren't part of your audience.

don't write for them.

[romancedream]

That scene when John was talking about Irene Adler but very much described Molly 👌

We all know Sherlock was thinking about her 💗
