Omg! My beloved fic The Wisteria Tree just reached 20,000 hits, thanks to you fine folk! :))) I have a few stories that are particularly dear to my heart and this is one of them. The premise is a memory loss story, this time featuring a Sherlock who is bewildered to wake from a coma to discover that he has no memory of the past five years, including his entire marriage to John. This is a story about them finding their way back to as close to the same place as they possibly could have come in spite of that. This is also one of my flower-themed stories and the 28th of my current 85 posted stories to reached 20,000 hits! This story is also one that I was particularly pleased with in terms of its emotional impact and I’m completely delighted that so many of you have read it, left kudos or a bookmark or a kind comment about it. Thank you so much!!

BakerTumblings

And finally, award for the best summary for a fic I didn’t read since ACD is not my scene:
“Holmes and Watson are captured by a brick shithouse of a villain, and unfortunately, Holmes is a slut about it.” from the acd fic “Incorrigible” by draculard.
If I haven’t been able to tag you, I will be leaving a comment on the fic in question to ensure you know you’ve been read and loved. Greatly.
There are many stories which probably should have been on this list if I’d only managed to read them in 2019 and not just simmer them on my to-read list. White Knight is something I am particularly looking forward to since people keep shouting my eardrums out about it. Another one would be The Death And Resurrection of a Beekeeper.
Omg, thank you including me/my stuff on this list!! This is some high-flying company to be in and I’m honoured! Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Half defeated, half “this sort of ridiculousness is what made me fall in love with her and I wouldn’t have it any other way”
Hahaha! And she’s so happy! I mean, I would be

The lovely @thegreatgherkin87 tagged me in a Thing, and I’m quite often obedient to doing Things I’ve Been Tagged In, so here goes!
Rules: Tag 9 people you’d like to get to know better!
Top 3 ships: Johnlock… uh… I know that other people successfully ship multiple ships at the same time, but I’m very singular in my focus.
Last song: That I listened to on purpose? Probably would have been Queen’s Don’t stop me now, which was the last thing to pop up on my workout (cardio) playlist earlier. At the dinner party I was at, the last thing we listened to was Buxtehude’s Magnificat.
Lipstick or chapstick: Both, though I only wear lipstick sometimes, whereas I’m horrendously addicted to my chapstick. Blistex lip medex, the blue one. Sweet crack. Lol.
Last movie: I’ve actually seen a heap of movies recently, both old and new! On Boxing Day, my bestie and I went to see Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, then went back to his place and watched Mulan, which he’d never seen. On the 29th, as part of my birthday festivities (my bday is the 30th), we rewatched Star Wars: A New Hope, then went and saw Bombshell, and then on the 30th, we went to see Knives Out. The last one was the best. :)
Reading: I’m actually reading multiple books, and surprisingly they’re actually ALL non-fiction! I’m reading: Syria: The Making and Unmaking of a Refuge State by Dawn Chatty, A Shameful Act: The Armenian Genocide and the Question of Turkish Responsibility by Taner Akçam, and The Body: A Guide for Occupants by Bill Bryson. The first two, I’m reading specifically for (and at) work, though I chose both topics and the specific books, and the third was a Christmas gift. If you haven’t read anything by Bill Bryson, do yourselves a favour and DO! His travel books are so hilarious that they’re dangerous to read in public, and then he branched out into other topics like the development of the English language, the history of the entire universe, a history of human domestic life, and now I’m plunging into his study of the human body. It’s super interesting so far! :)
I’m tagging: as per my usual method, because I know and like way too many of you to be able to just choose, so I’m going with nine of you who recently appeared in my activity list. Lol. You are: @221brie, @johntrashwatson, @eternalhale, @bakingsherlycakes, @totallysilvergirl, @polkaretto, @thewhippedcreamhand, @stripedsilverfeline, and @savage-pineapples. Just if you want to! :)

I still have to find something that’s better than staying in bed and reading @silentauroriamthereal masterpieces.
So, I love you. Just thought I’d say.
