Thank you,

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. We owe you so much. Happy birthday.


(And thank you Google, for letting me know. But that doesn't mean I'm not still mad. "I hate myself for lovin' you.")

1 I read Sir Doyle about 30+ years ago. Aside from the cannon, I've come to enjoy many of the modern writers who either write more Holmes stories (Laurie R. King and the Mary Russell novels - 'The Beekeeper's Apprentice', "A Monstrous Regiment of Women' to name the first two in the series), or write in the same vein (Caleb Carr, 'The Alienist' and 'Angel of Darkness'). Go. Read. Enjoy.

2 He really did create a whole new genre; the Holmes stories were revolutionary.
