So, an interesting day. I busied myself by waking up at 7am and watching Thor! (Which by the way, is brilliant) and spent the rest of the day doing necessary little jobs and throwing in some work from home. 

Managed to write a little more of Chapter 5 of LTJ, one step closer to publishing!

OOH and I bet you are really super gorgeous!! oh brother, sorry I'm asking SO many questions today, you just seem so interesting!! :P (p.s. 1 last question!!! What would you say is your best physical feature??) Sorry again ): ): x

Thank you! I don’t mind, it helps suffice the request to use my blog more! I hope that I do come across as interesting even though I’m not.

My best physical feature.. hmm.. Nothing obvious comes to mind, my eyes?

I'd personally love to see more personal posts about your day to day life and stuff! It sounds really interesting!!! I understand about the caution of stranger danger hehehe! What are your favourite pieces of Johnlock fanart??? O: x

I guess I can manage that! Although I must insist that my life is no more interesting than most peoples!

Hm.. I don’t often look at the fan-art as I believe it’s wrong to draw characters that look so much like Benedict and Martin however there are some truly brilliant pieces out there. I love Alice X. Zhang’s work and a sketch by Lady Vimes. However a favourite piece of mine is by frogstarr! It’s a lovely drawing of Sherlock and John messing around with a camera pulling funny faces!

Progress;

Well, in all sense of the word there hasn’t been much. The other day I was all raring and ready to go to produce chapter 5 of LTJ.. I wrote 600 words and my brain shut down. I’m out of practice and am lacking the determination and commitment I had with Queens, I guess that’s what happens after you stick to such a long fic. 

I promise you I’ll be back with regular updates soon.

I need to relax, unwind and de-stress.

All in good time.

YOU NEED TO POST MORE ON HERE!!! D:

I do, don’t I? What type of thing would like to see on my blog?

Can we (your lovely followers and fans!) see a picture of you and your fiance pretty please??? :)

Yes, that was my idea of a joke! I hope you understand that I don’t want photos of myself on the internet mainly because I’m not a pretty thing as most of you are! I will think about it for the future. I hope I haven’t disappointed you. x

And why did you delete your about me bit??? ):):

I’ve been asked this a few times - simply because I came to understand how important it is to be safe on the internet! Also, is it not more fun to be elusive and mysterious?

Tegan sent me here!! I wanted to tell you I love your work so much and that we all love every word. When will you continue writing geniuses? I am excited for more!!

This is a difficult one, I don’t know. I don’t want to give dates or say it is any sooner than I will because I don’t want to raise your hopes when I know right now I am not physically able to write GLTS to the level you all expect. I’m in progress of planning and writing the first chapter of the Queens sequel which is, as always, time consuming and I’m juggling writing LTJ as well which has been a project I’ve wanted to do for a while. I, however, won’t tell you that I won’t ever write GLTS again, because I know I will. Some day in the near future when I’m free and relaxed, or gain a spark of inspiration I will begin to write again and I know it will become easy and enjoyable again, but for now forcing myself to write isn’t giving good results. I thank you all for being so patient and I hope you know that I’m sorry that I’ve made you wait!

The Timelord’s Consultant 4/19/12 . chapter 30

WOW. That was absolutely brilliant! You had me reading into the latest hours of the night, this was the only thing I could think about for the two days it took me to finish. SO MUCH FEELS!

I adore the way your portrayed thei relationship, I adored the characterisation(everyone was still themselves, but SO TEENY! Really accurate)

I’m writing this review in a hurry, the bell’s just rung, but I have to tell you, that this was spectacular, and I hope you continue Letter To John as long as you continued 221B Queens. I’ll be reading the sequel ASAP!

2 days? Quick reader you are! I’m honestly glad you enjoyed it and I’m flattered, I hope you enjoy the rest of LTJ which will be along soon and of course the sequel!

digi-smile 4/14/12 . chapter 30

Well it took me all night and most of this afternoon to finish this, but it was totally worth it! This was an epiclly awesome read full of action and thrills (also smut good gracious the smut :D) And much like a good novel i was sad to reach the end. This is definatly going in my favs!

You are all such quick readers! I’m ecstatic that you liked it and don’t fear, there will be more in the near future!

The eye behind the lens 4/4/12 . chapter 30

Oh my God! This is without doubt one of the best Sherlock fics Ive ever read! I adored it! I ended up forcing myself to read slowly because I didn’t want it to end! The characterisation was spot on, despite being AU, and just everything was amazing! Definitely my favourite AU that I’ve read :) urgh, I honestly can’t speak highly enough of it, or thank you enough for writing it :) I’m also going to recommend the fuck out of it to all my followers on my blog coz I want as many people as possible to read this :) thank God you’ve done a sequel though, or else I would have been gutted right now xD amazing once again :) xxx

I need to stress that GLTS is a spin-off and the actual sequel to Queens won’t be written until July and that I’ve actually taken a short break from writing at the moment, HOWEVER! Thank you so so much for your comments, they were a pleasure to read and I’m extremely flattered! I’m honoured that you think it’s one of the best, well and truly!

WhatATenderWorldThatWouldBe 4/4/12 . chapter 30

Spencer hart,tom cruise and of course sherlock would say nothing but ‘item’ :D:D I thank all the mighty powers and your excellent writing skills for the best epilogue ever written!

Thank you millions for this whole story,you’ve made having the flue SO much better :

Bless you! You’re most welcome, I’m glad you enjoyed it and that I eased the monotony of flu!

cangzhu1990 3/21/12 . chapter 30

Can I translate your story to Chinese? I really enjoy it

Of course, you can translate it into any language you need!

SpirkTrekker42 3/20/12 . chapter 30

I have really, really enjoyed this teen fic. You have really brought them to life in a way few could, while still staying true to the canon source. Well done!

Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it!

retroparamour 3/17/12 . chapter 30

Aww, the ending was perfect! I’ve loved reading this story so much. It’s updates always cheered me up and my past couple of months have been hard. So thank you ever so much! I cannot wait for the sequel ;)

This means a lot to me, I’m glad I provided something to ease a hard past few months! I hope you enjoy the upcoming sequel as much as you did this!

it-all-implodes 3/15/12 . chapter 30

My heart is positively bursting with happiness. Beautiful fic. I look forward to returning to Queens :D

As do I, as do I! My creation, Queens, feels like a child strangely!

HannaBeth1001 3/13/12 . chapter 30

I loved the story and the Spencer Hart bit was wonderful.

Ta!

addicted2fic 3/12/12 . chapter 30

It’s taken me a few days, but is this story ever good. You’ve done a great job combining fluff with nc-17 and plot. I applaud you.

And I liked the bit about tom cruise’s tux, ‘cause he’s short, and john’s not tall ;P

Thank you very much, I had to include that section at the end, I’d planned to since the start!

0oJustAFeelingo0 3/12/12 . chapter 30

Well that was WONDERFUL :D and don’t worry, a longer epilogue made us all happier :3

This was just such an awesome AU story… I’m really going to miss it TT I’ll make sure to keep an eye out for your next masterpiece 

Until then

Thank you! There will be more out soon which I hope you like!

WitchRavenFox 3/12/12 . chapter 30

Aah, so glad that I found this when it started a I have followed through everything. I can’t wait to read the spin offs an the very eagerly awaited sequel. This really has been a fantastic journey! Thank you! RF x

Oh, darling, that’s lovely! It’s been a pleasure talking to you x

thisisforyou 3/11/12 . chapter 30

“He had one true friend and that was his boyfriend, Sherlock Holmes.”

It’s probably testament to my level of insanity that I instantly heard the voice my brain has given Todd screaming “OI!”.

But no - a brilliant ending to a great story, well done.

-for you!

Hahah, oh poor Todd! He’ll be back and will make John pay for that! Thank you!

Strawberry-Green-Girl 3/11/12 . chapter 30

amazing! I can’t wait to read more from you!

You won’t have to wait long!

SeverusDmitri18 3/11/12 . chapter 30

more?

Of course!

Miss-221B 3/11/12 . chapter 30

I’ve absolutly loved reading this! Thank you for such an amazing story. I really liked the bit with Mycroft at the end there :) Maybe you could do a spin off where Salley and the other kids at Queens find out about their relationship? Anyway I’ve been following this story for a long time and I’ve loved it and I’m so glad its finally resolved :) Well done!

Thank YOU for reading it! Wait until the sequel for the big reveal! 

Evalon Bradley 3/11/12 . chapter 30

I love this story so much- I can’t wait until the sequel begins!

Flattered to hear, I can’t wait to write it!

Honey Fujioka 3/11/12 . chapter 30

Great ending! Sad to see if over. I’d like to write a lengthy review on this, but eh. Just know that I’ve kept up with the chapter updates and am glad to have been with John and Sherlock throughout their school adventures :)

Thank you, I’m glad you were there to follow them :)

Joy 3/11/12 . chapter 30

You have made the past few weeks just wonderful. Please write for a long time to come, and thank you.

It’s my pleasure!

drjamband 3/11/12 . chapter 30

AWWWW YEAHHH A SEQUEL! loved this story!

Look out for the sequel early July!

L.Lawliet13 3/11/12 . chapter 30

*Cries loudly in the corner* I can’t believe its over! Now what will I read? *Cries* Its been absolutely incredible and by far the best fanfiction I’ve ever read, and no joke about it. I hope you might write a sequel and of course your spin off stories, I’m gonna miss this story badly and hope you don’t stay quiet for too long. (Please reply via ff if possible) and good luck for your future adventures x

I’m honoured! I’m here and I’ll be writing again soon, so keep an eye out! 

BelinasEgg 3/11/12 . chapter 30

Okay… *sniff sniff* I am genuinely upset and saddened by the fact this fic has ended. From the start I’ve enjoyed it, and found the characters really well done, and the plot interesting and intriguing. The whole thing is well written beyond belief, and your updates were gratifyingly quick. This is a nice little ending chapter. You did maybe delve into things quite as much as I would have liked, but then again I thought it was just the right length. Short and sweet. 

I’m looking forward to all of the future stories you will be kind enough to gift us with, and it would be interesting to see you write some other long fics, but with a different plot. So basically put, well done, and thank you.

Thank you very much! There’s no time to be sad, there will be plenty more from me to come and I’m pleased to know you enjoyed it!

Pauly4life 3/11/12 . chapter 30

Fantastic story! (And I loved the Spencer Hart tuxedo part.)

Thank you!

NivalKenival 3/11/12 . chapter 30

I am so sad this had to end, I can’t wait for the sequal!

Yours truely

Keep your eyes peeled!

I’m writing up review replies for the ones I received for the epilogue. I may be a few months late but I still appreciate them, look out for a reply if you reviewed! 

Bookmark the date 17/5/12 and 1/7/12!

Your next chapter of LTJ and.. *drum roll* Chapter 1 of the Queens sequel! Eeee!

Sherlock wheezed awkwardly. ‘Love…tell me you love me John, please.’

‘Sherlock?’

‘Yes?’ He whispered.

‘I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you.’

sherblockian asked
Hello! I saw you are looking for someone to draw a fanart for you and I thought that I maybe could volunteer ~ So, if that's okay, I would like you to tell a bit more about it all c:

Oh, that’s exciting! Yes please! Would you want to draw one for 221B Queens or GLTS? Let me know and I’ll give you some ideas or answer any questions you need! This is lovely, I can’t wait!

Edit: Okay I’m at a laptop and can answer this properly now. What I’d love would be a picture of the boys (Sherlock and John) as teenagers, John in the ‘Queens’ football kit and Sherlock in the Queens school uniform. The rest could be artistic licence as long as you stick to the descriptions that I gave and such! I can link you to descriptions of the boys/uniforms if you haven’t read the fic!

Hello all! I’ve been neglecting my blog and my work as I’ve been exceptionally busy lately. Do not fear, I haven’t abandoned anything! I’m just on a temporary hiatus. I’ve written brainstorms for the first few chapters of the (unnamed) Queens sequel - I was thinking of holding a competition for the name but I can’t think of a reward! - and will be back writing Letters to John when possible.
Thank you for your patience!
(Any questions about anything, message me! I’ll be happy to answer!)

221B Queens School the sequel. The big reveal. Will you be reading?
