Socks A La Mode & Laine Magazine

Megan-Anne has informed me this post cannot consist of several different gifs of people screaming. Apparently, that’s “not good journalism” or something. I won’t pretend to understand or agree, but she’s the CEO on Thursdays, so I have to do what she says. Without further ado, I shall share my glorious news with you: my pattern “Socks À La Mode” is being featured in Issue 17 of Laine…

and it came to me then that every plan is a tiny prayer to father time as i stared as my shoes in the icu that reeked of piss and 409 and i rationed my breaths as i said to myself that i’d already taken too much today as each descending peak on the lcd took you a little farther away from me away from me amongst the vending machines and year-old magazines in a place where we only say goodbye it stung like a violent wind that our memories depend on a faulty camera in our minds AND I KNEW THAT YOU WERE A TRUTH I WOULD RATHER LOSE THAN TO HAVE NEVER LAIN BESIDE AT ALL!!!! and i looked around at all the eyes on the ground as the tv entertained itself cause there’s no comfort in the waiting room just nervous paces bracing for bad news then the nurse comes ‘round and everyone lifts their heeeeeaaaaads but i’m thinking of what sarah said….that love is watching someone die. SO WHO’S GONNA WATCH YOU DIE!!! SO WHO’S GONNA WATCH YOU DIE!!!!! SO WHO’S GONNA WATCH YOU DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!

What I love about the serlialized Substack novel format is that this is how about half of these books were originally published - Dickens, Arthur Conan Doyle, Wilkie Collins, even Herman Melville serialized stories in magazines (though not Moby Dick itself). We're returning to the roots of the form. Resurrecting something that's lain dormant for a generation. Maybe it's now novels should be published.

Very excited to see what happens with new, original books coming out this way too (not that I have a stake in that or anything lol).

All the world's a stage: His Last Bow

Today I received the last story of the year from my dear friend Watson. Did he write it? Apparently he didn't. It was Sir Arthur Conan Doyle? Billy again? Mycroft Holmes? We don't know, but at least I'm sure the author wasn't Sherlock Holmes because there's not a single cry of "my Watson would do this better". We know our drama queen. My theory is that Mycroft wrote it after hearing Sherlock and John talking about this case, and then ACD edited it.

[ID: Cover of The Strand Magazine vol. 65, no. 321, September 1917. And illustration of a street in navy blue. Crossing the middle of the page there's a red band with Sherlock Holmes profile that says "Sherlock Holmes outwits a German Spy]

There are many reasons of why I love this story: Holmes has the chance to use chloroform:

[ID: Sherlock Holmes (as Altamont) with a goatee, using chlorofom-soaked rag to sleep Von Bork. Illustration by Alfred Gilbert]

Holmes and Watson working together once more:

[ID: Holmes and Watson walking Von Bork slowly. Illustration by Alfred Gilbert]

Holmes in disguise with longer hair and a horrible goatee, the references to professor Moriarty, colonel Moran and Irene Adler Norton, Martha the housekeeper (Mrs. Hudson? I don't know) there's a cat! but what I really like is how Sherlock Holmes used all his knowledge, talent and expertise to work as a spy.

This is his last case. This is his last play. That's why the title of this story has been translated into Spanish as Su último saludo en el escenario, El último saludo (as in my copy of Todo Sherlock Holmes) or La última reverencia. The detective works incognito for two years: he changes his appearance, he speaks with American accent and he travels to another places. Sherlock is an actor and all the world is a stage, and for his last show he calls his friend Watson to work with him at his side for the grand finale. Holmes takes the time to drink wine with Watson and to talk about everything and nothing while Von Bork is tied (somebody is third-wheeling here, or as we say in Chile, Von Bork is playing the violin). The detective takes the chance to steal £500, use his own book Practical Handbook of Bee Culture as a decoy, and make a dramatic identity reveal because Holmes loves to be dramatic, and he really loves to be dramatic when Watson is at his side. The previous short stories are the evidence.

What happened after this? my friend Doctor Watson answer this question in the preface of the book His Last Bow:

The friends of Mr. Sherlock Holmes will be glad to learn tha he is still alive and well, though somewhat crippled by occasional attacks of rheumatism. He has, for many years, lived in a small farm upon the downs five miles from Eastbourne, where his time is divided between philosophy and agriculture. During this period of rest he has refused the most princely offers to take up various cases, having determined that his retorement was a permanent one. The approach of the German war caused him however, to lay his remarkable combination of intellectual and practical activity at the disposal of the government, with historical results which are recounted in His Last Bow. Several previous experiences which have lain long in my portfolio have been added to His Last Bow so as to complete the volumen JOHN H. WATSON, M.D.

It's been a year since Letters from Watson reunited old and new fans to read the short stories on Sherlock Holmes and next year it's time to read the novels!
