A new bar/restaurant in Seattle inspired by "...the Diogenes Club of the #sherlockholmes books..." Sadly, for me, it is too far away to be a regular haunt....

The Ink Drinker is the bookish bar Seattle’s been waiting for
The full-service bar and restaurant in Seattle’s Ballard neighborhood is entirely dedicated to reading, discussing and sharing books and literature.

I'm just through TSA. I think the inspection lady and I have to get married now after the way she handled me.
Apparently my right ASICS shoe 'alarmed.' I frankly find the whole experience alarming. 🤨
Oh, #sherlockholmes, the things I do for you; off to Denver and then on to NYC. #BSIweekend2026.

Egad! @lyradora.bsky.social -- I read the prologue of the first book. I don't have enough adjectives to describe how awful the text is. 😑
You know what really bothers me about the AI slop flooding the market?
It’s so very obviously AI, and yet people still buy it and review. Hundreds of reviews. Likely thousands of downloads.
I don’t get it. What’s the appeal?

Check it out -- see all the fantastic annotations for this project at acdsociety.com/bjg/a/bjga.h... Four pages of front matter and 12 pages of manuscript to date. We are 'mining the Gap'!

I finally know why the new book isn't working. The underlying theme of the better stories and the title/introduction aren't in alignment. Time to rethink and restructure. I have the new working title and suddenly it all feels possible. Only losing 3,000 words instead of 30,000.

My friend down the street had old, not so great copies of Collier's complete #sherlockholmes in 8 volumes, The Further Adv of SH by Peter Haining, The Uncollected SH by Richard Lancelyn Green, The Exploits of SH by Adrian Conan Doyle. He had Loxley Books in England remake them into this set.😍

Episode 321: Sherlock Holmes Into the Fire
Margie Deck's new book is a clever combination of two of Conan Doyle's major themes.

We finished the little book nook kit, despite our own limitations and the limitations of the instructions. Far from our best work, but fun, and now a Christmas gift from two years ago is done.
