Author has written 2 stories for Sherlock.

A new username for Old James.

It's the same old me, don't worry. Just got so fed up of the old account - it was always ballsing up and I spent most of my time signed out. I suppose after not using it for a few years it got a bit confused with all the sudden action and had a little breakdown. So, if you are wondering who I am it's me - Good Old James.

It will take me a while to find all my old favourites, so don't worry if I disappear for a while, I've just got lost in a good story somewhere.

I read mostly Sherlock Holmes (ACD/BBC - verse), but will delve into Harry Potter, NCIS, LOTR, The Hobbit, SG1/ SGU and Doctor Who if story comes recommended. Feel free to recommend away!

I'm on tumblr too now - Good Old James, come and say hello.


OMG - FANART

The beautiful MrsNoggin has sketched for my ficlet The Greater Game.

Have a look The Greater Game by MrsN.

A multi-talented lady, seriously - check out her writing too.
