It sounds like the issue isn't even OFCs as such; it's that you don't want to read Holmesiana that has romance as a major component, and that OFCs almost always coincide with romance.

Is that a fair way to characterize it?

That's fair, though like I said, I don't object to OFCs who are clients, supporting characters, things like that. I'm all for more Violet Hunters, Mrs. Hudson, Mary Morstans and Irene Adlers. But what I don't like are fics where Holmes runs into a mysterious young women who captures his heart, blah blah blah...

I've been thinking about buying some more of Michael Mallory's second Mrs. Watson series. I recall them being pretty good, but not focused on Holmes as much.
