How to find a snowman......

Call for Sherlock Holmes of course! In the course of a Christmas writing challenge on www.holmesian.net in 2010 I came up with a short piece entitled 'Henrietta's Problem'.

A fair few reviews of the book singled out 'Henrietta's Problem' for praise and when I re-read it, I was struck by the thought that it would make a lovely illustrated story for children. Fortunately in Lyme Regis, we have Rikey Austin in out midst, a children's writer and illustrator and she agreed to come in on the project with me and illustrate the now slightly re-written story (originally it was narrated by Watson, but is now narrated by a third party. In a few weeks we will see the fruits of our labours and we are quite excited about the interest already shown it.
