I used to buy the mimeographed, stapled together booklets. And Sherlock Holmes Fanfic, was a delight! A mix of Dr. Who and Sherlock...what a lark! But I haven't read any for decades!

And I think donkey thieving was the least of Jesus's playing fast and loose with the law, if I remember right. But notable nonetheless. *LOL* They’re both very cute!

It would be lovely if more writers did a bit of research rather than going off of what they think they've learned from the movies. Cool. I’ll check it out.

That sounds really promising. Thanks. I'll add that to my huge to be read pile! I'm really not a fan of the manly man archetype, so despite it's strengths, The Iron Duke didn't make it to "keeper" because of Rhys. Ooo. That sounds really promising. Thanks.

It's just a gem of a novella ^^.
