Oh gosh, I LOVE Holmes and Watson and I love it in all its silly and old and modern versions. I liked how Sherlock updated all the familiar pieces of it, I loved the Robert Downey Jr. version and really Hound of the Baskervilles is just a CLASSIC. Sir Henry!! The shoe! Seldon the convict!
As for the feedback and such, I've been thrilled with it, since I revived the story. It's when it suddenly drops off the cliff that I think, huh, is it me? There's a sort of rhythm to it -- and I can pretty much tell when the that rhythm is off.
And I was nuts to ever try to write something when a main character is a hound who (rather than being bent on ripping out Sir Henry's throat) is capable of so much detection just be sniffing and then communicating. Thank goodness for plot contrivances!
