(It's an awkward one because I do think Conan Doyle's Holmes stories are good, but one comes across as implying otherwise when talking about the creepily obsessive and multigenerational fandom).

I don't think there's anything bad about sherlock holmes spin off fiction selling more and being popular then other shorts any more than its bad that people buy star trek/star wars spin off material. Reading the thing you like rather than the thing you dont know is a pretty basic inpulse.

I just wish more people liked pete and dud really.
