Jane Austen really said ‘I respect the “I can fix him” movement but that’s just not me. He’ll fix himself if knows what’s good for him’ and that’s why her works are still calling the shots today.

Fellow Sherlollians, look at it! Bask in the glory!

Dearest Sherlollians, Love MizJoely XXX

Ta-da! The final fruits of my Sherlolly labors. A love letter to all Sherlollians, past, present and future. **

Thank you thank you THANK YOU to everyone who gave permission to use their wonderful fanworks in this zine. Feel free if you want to download and print and have your very own olde-timey fanzine. Sherlolly was too late for that party, but since I started out there, I wanted my most recent fandom love on my bookshelf alongside my Classic Who, Star Trek, and Blake's 7 zines.

Enjoy!

**(To anyone with the old link: Sorry! This is the correct final version of the zine. A story was missing from the one I had previously uploaded.)

A problem I have when reading romance novels is I cannot empathize with disliking someone but finding them attractive regardless. If I dislike someone I'm like "You are like a wadded up ball of sweaty socks and I want you to burn in a pyre, undying and screaming for days"

subscribing to a fic isn’t enough I need the author to blast a bat signal into the night sky whenever they update

colin be like: this is my best friend penelope to whom I write letters more often than to my family when I am away, whose company I seek out at every social occasion, with whom I hang out at every opportunity, whose dress I compliment when she gets a new one, to whom my entire sense of self is attached because it crumbled when she stopped replying to my letters, who makes me laugh, who is so embedded in my life I start to lose my mind when she isn't anymore, for whom I think every gentleman in the ton is not good enough, who I am convinced doesn't need any lessons in charm because she's already charmed me beyond measure. we are platonic friends.

having a freeze response to stress is so funny in the context of normal adult stressors. millions of years of evolution are trying to tell me that the email will not find me if i stay very still and do nothing

Fic idea I'm probably never going to use - free for the taking:

Bridgerton Polin AU of "Secretary" where Colin is the Maggie Gyllenhaal character (the Secretary) and Penelope is James Spader's (the demanding and strict boss with very particular and specific demands).

Gimme Dom Pen and baby Sub Colin.

Christmas knife shopping for my dad - "He likes knives. Maybe we should get him a knife again for the seventeenth billion year in a row? Something pointy maybe? I don't know. I know nothing about knives, just pick a shiny one and we can go. It's the thought that counts, right?"

Christmas knife shopping for my dad after binge watching ten seasons of "Forged in Fire" - "They all have a nice pattern but I'm really liking that twisted damascus over there. On the other hand, that clip point is going to be harder to keep sharp, versus the ladder pattern drop point. On the other other hand, at this point in his life, I don't think he's actually going to do anything specific with it anyway, and I'm pretty sure I'm overthinking all of this and now I've got a headache. Let's just get a pointy shiny one and we can go. It's the thought that counts, right?"
