General comments:

Wow that's a lot of Sherlock secrets.

Apparently, Sherlock is the new Code Geass.

I kept going "ok, this has got to be the last one -- oh no it isn't. OK, this has at least got to be the last one about this one specific episode -- oh no it isn't". And I don't even think it's all the work of one anon, because the secrets' particulars seem to conflict.

Makes me wish I liked this show more...

Funny, before I scrolled down, I thought, 'Wow, it's Gaga day'. :P

wow. only 19 secrets. sheesh these posts are getting short.

I find them all very boring and this makes me sad.

I kinda agree. None of them are in my fandoms save for the Disney one. ...boring this week...

I miss the Victorian!Holmes fandom so much, omg. It's never coming back, is it?

Me too. :(

The other day I was reading a reasonably good Victorian Holmes fanfic and mid-way through the fic (for no reason at all) they started getting referred to as "Sherlock" and "John". Threw me right out of the story and made me wonder if the author had forgotten they weren't writing a BBC Sherlock fic.

But it's still around?

It hasn't gone anywhere.

It's Gaga and Sherlock day! Hooray!

Really hoping we get a good number of secrets next week.

Had like a month worth of sub thirty secrets, and rarely breaking a K comments.

(yes yes I know people have claimed 'this com is dying! histrionics for god knows how long, but still)

Everytime I see those Sherlock pics I see Tim from the Office UK and a man with a weird face. >_>

That's a lot of Sherlock spoilers. Guess I should go catch up on season 2.

Not many secrets seem to inspire a lot of discussion. Can't say I mind. :3

Does anyone else submit their secrets on the last day of the submission post like I do? So it feels like you don't have to wait as long for them to show up?

Can't read (or even look at) half of them out of fear of getting spoiled. What's up with the Sherlock spoiler attack today?

These are from the first bunch of secrets submitted after the extremely spoilery third episode, so people feel the need to vent.

To all of you not into this fandom: Please try to cope with us a bit more, most of us have started to calm down.

The storm of Sherlock HAS LANDED

How does one just START writing fanfic?
I've never really done it before outside of like, little spurts of a couple hundred words or so

The reason I'm asking is because the fandom I'm thinking of writing for has very little fic outside of two principal characters and I'm tired of waiting for someone to create a kinkmeme so I've decided to just write it myself. But it will probably be terrible. I have the general idea of what I want to happen and some short bits of dialog and that's about it. HELP HOW DOES I WRITING

This question...feels kind of vague to me, so I'm not sure if this information is actually going to be helpful to you or not. I'm going to try, though! (Also, I'm not sure if you meant that you just haven't written fanfiction, or fiction in general, and I'm operating on the assumption that you meant writing stories period. Please forgive me if I'm incorrect in this assumption.)

Obviously I can't speak for everyone, but for me, I just end up with ideas that I want to see happen (or take hold of an idea someone else has given), and start writing it. I generally begin with scenes or dialogue that I have a clear picture of, and just tend to fill in from there. Then again, I tend to skip around on pretty much everything I write, so.

As far as the bits that I don't have planned out already when I start writing something, usually I just try to play out the scene in my head and decide where it might go from there or what events might lead up to the situation.

Honestly, there are a lot of things to take into account when you're writing something - different authors have varied styles, and different readers prefer different styles. Some keep things minimalistic, depending on dialogue and short actions to carry their story; others could write pages upon pages of description of location, characters, the lamp, etc. What type is better, again, partially depends on what the author's preference is, but also depends on what sort of fic you're writing.

...anyway. tl;dr, starting with what you're certain about, and then filling in transitions and descriptions and anything else that might need it is the method that works for me.

Oh mercy, I've been waiting for the deluge of Reichenbach secrets. Well, we have a lot of feelings.
