![]() ![]() ![]() I love this story... I just never want the chapters to end. :) |
![]() ![]() ![]() Lol I was rereading the chapter when I went to view your profile, and as I was scrolling down the list I saw the updated date changed to 12/24/11 for this story! Thanks for updating it was an excellent chapter and early christmas gift :) |
![]() ![]() ![]() OMG please continue/update this story, it's really good and intriguing! And it's at the good part right now too! |
![]() ![]() ![]() I absolutely adore this fic, and pray you have not abandoned it as it's a classic and must read in the fandom, for me at least. This last chapter was amazing,and I love how you've made each and every character real,faulty and believable above all, with appropiate context and always dialogues and reactions very in character for both Watson and Holmes. |
![]() ![]() "hello,Andrea\n\nI'm the one who asked for your permission for translating your 'Confessions of the Master' into chines. I am now working on 23rd chapter. There's something I'm now sure how to understand it. When Holmes heared that Julia is leaving, he said to Watson "I suppose the loss is to our own sex, Watson. Don't you agree?" "Most assuredly. For some lucky fellow, anyhow." I more than stressed that word. what does 'for some lucky fellow, anyhow'means? is he suggesting Holmes? or himself? my email adress: , looking forward to your reply. |
![]() ![]() ![]() can I jsut say that, i copied the WHOLE story into a word document (for the purpose of reading it when I have no internet, and no other, I swear) and it's 343 pages! Jeesh! just...PUBLISH the damn thing... love it... |
![]() ![]() ![]() Beautifully written! This story is one of the best I've ever read! I loved the ending of this chapter. It was so cute and sad too. I don't like Julia. There's just something... off about her. Is it bad that I hope she's going to die giving birth? I can't wait to find out what happens next! |
![]() ![]() hey you! this is really good, if im not wrong this is kind of like a biography of sherlock holmes right? Yeah i liked your quote on the first paragraph that said that nobody will ver really know the real sherlock holmes and that you are finally laying to rest a dear soul. That was pretty cool i thought, and the rest of the story was pretty tight. you are a really good writer:) see ya later |
![]() ![]() Hello,I'm from China and I love your work. I'm here asking for your permission to translate it into share it with some of my close friends. I'll attach your name and this site so don't worry. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Damn you. Damn you a lot. This is an amazing story. It feels very... real, in most ways, instead of the usual 'admit our feelings, realize they're mutual, happily ever after' sort of fare - which I love, don't get me wrong, I absolutely adore happy endings, but sometimes... it's nice to get a little dose of reality, and you've got that in here. The fact that it in some ways mirrors a relationship of mine only makes it cut deeper. At first I was rather wary of Josh, as he didn't really have the voice of any three-year-old I've ever dealt with - he's still the one part that doesn't quite resonate with me as 'real'. Though I understand that he's supposed to be very advanced (and I still have some information about child geniuses fresh in mind from last semester's Psych course), he still feels a little bit off to me, having dealt with small children fairly recently. It's a lot more believable as he gets older, though. I love this story, and I'm eagerly awaiting the next chapter - hopefully it won't take too long, but seeing how long you've been working on the rest of this... well, I won't hold my breath, so no pressure. ;) That said, though, the writing itself has a lot of errors - nothing that stopped me up for long, as I was too eager to keep on with the story and find out what was to happen next, but they are there and fixing them would make the story much more effective and much more smooth to read. Mostly it's a matter of misused words (the 'morning addition' instead of 'morning edition'), a couple of sentence fragments, and sentences that look like they were rewritten partway through without removing all of the prior wording. Also, thank you a lot for centering the A/N in the last chapter. That there wasn't anything between the A/Ns, footnotes, and the actual text was starting to bother me. I would love to offer my services as beta/editor, if it would help at all, for future or past chapters. Like I said, I love this story, and I'd love to be able to help with it. |
![]() ![]() ![]() GOOD LORD. I thought that this fic was forever hiatus (must be at least over a year? Two?). Please tell me you haven't jumped on movie-verse bandwagon? I couldn't stand to see Holmes and Watson warped. This chapter was complex, deep even. I admit that I'm going to have to reread most all the fic to remember what's been going on. Don't leave again! *gets fire and pitch forks out* |
![]() ![]() ![]() I am writing a review here, having read through to Ch. 33 (and that took me a damn long time!) - so it's very hard for me to express every reaction to each chapter. But I suppose that you should know... this last chapter wrenched something inside - and a threatening tear became reality... I actually cried, for many many reasons. Certain sentences and a little time later - the swelling of sadness once again. You have my upmost respect in keeping this not an -omgit'swatsonandsherlock!1! only - being so heartbreaking about these two men and their relationship. It's going to sound pathetic, esp. as I'm not quoting your text back to you (and believe me, there are times - canonical or not - where I have utterly succumbed to your story), but there is a crushing realism in terms of sexuality and love in your story. For that, I am truly awed. Please continue? (Yes, there are some spelling mistakes (and personally I did not think the rape scene fitted with your story) but what is that to such a story that brings a reader to genuine tears?) |
![]() ![]() ![]() Wow, you really do your research! This is masterfully written, but I must point toward he spelling and offer my services as an editor, if you'd have me. But apart from conventions, I just love this! Please, continue! |
![]() ![]() gosh, i'm so glad you posted new chapter! i almost got used the thought there's no chance to read any new chapter of your fantastic novel. Thank you! |
![]() ![]() ![]() I love this one! Thank you so much for writing it! Will you update soon? Please! I have done very little else but to read your long, angsty, lovely and wonderful story! Your Holmes puzzles me, more than ACDs and I keep wondering why he acts the way he does. I can totally see him doing it, but I would like to know why - to get to know him, at least through Watsons eyes. Josh is a WONDERFUL character! And you are right, Watson is a terrible father, it almost seams like Holmes is the better parent. And again - please write more of this very soon! |
