Holmsies Voting is Open

[vulgarweed]

Voting is open for The Holmsies.

These are Sherlock fanfic awards meant to recognize lesser-known stories in particular - to be eligible, a story must have fewer than 25,000 hits and/or fewer than 250 reviews/comments anywhere else.

It looks like a lot of work went into this - there were thousands of fics submitted, and there are dozens of categories. I've read some of these stories, but only a few, and I'm going to be using this as a rec list until voting closes on September 1.

Congratulations!

Thank you!

More fic! Just when I think I've read almost everything, a list like this comes along. I do see some favorites. (Betwixt and Between by ivywatcher is FANTASTIC). And of course The Bone Fiddle! I love that story and that universe you've created so much.

I've read very, very few of those stories, and 'Betwixt and Between' isn't one of them! Looking forward to it. Thank you. It really is an honor just to be nominated, in such a huge fandom with so much good work.

I'm really glad someone decided to do awards focusing on lesser-known stories.

First of all, CONGRATS!

Second, egads. I don't think I've read any of those. And I thought I read a lot of fic. Seriously, how do some people find so much time to read so much fic? LOL. Slightly joking but I seriously am curious.

SO MUCH FIC. The mods say they received thousands of submissions. I believe it. Maybe they're just really fast readers. I am, and I know people even faster than me. That's a lot of fic there, but I could do it by September, I'm pretty sure. I'm looking forward to it.

Thank you!

Which surprises me - not because it isn't good, because it's so good - but that it qualifies at all because HOW THE HELL DOES BONE FIDDLE NOT HAVE MORE THAN 25k HITS????? It's probably the best original AU I've seen in the fandom!

[vulgarweed.livejournal.com]

Slightly less than 20k hits, as of now. That doesn't really surprise me - it's an oddball premise with limited appeal. Best original AU you've seen - wow, thank you!

And congrats to you on your nominations, plural! Well-deserved!

[azriona.livejournal.com]

Easily. And yes - it's a strange premise, but that's what makes it so wonderful, because it's so believable, without a single wrong note.

Thanks. I'm usually the author everyone forgets about, so it was a nice surprise.
