Short and sweet and busy!
I missed our anniversary last month, but better late than never: 221b_recs was created and had its first posts on January 7, 2011. We're now five years old and still standing, Thank you so much to all the reccers, members, volunteers, and readers who have contributed to this lucky recs comm.

For this month, welcome to our February reccers: ficklepig, swissmarg, verdant_fire, and write_out, all valued veterans. We look forward to your posts.

Thank you to January's reccers: chapbook, dognmonkeyshow, and rachelindeed. We've enjoyed your varied and inventive recs.



Sign ups are open now for March and any later month. You only need to make four recs a month, for completed works from any date created for any version of Sherlock Holmes, as fic, art, vids, podfic, or meta.  Sign up here!  Info and Guidelines here.  We want to keep this community active for as long as volunteers are interested in making recs.

Congratulations! It's no mean feat in the ever moving world of fandom. Thank you all for your dedication and the effort you've put into this comm.

Because of this post, I now realize my 5th anniversary in the BBC fandom will happen this fall. :D My stay in the Holmesian fandoms began in the late '70s or early '80s, but alas I don't recall much beyond seeing some of the Rathbone films and reading the original stories...

Happy anniversary to this comm! I'm very glad it exists, and I always enjoy coming here to find new fics and hear from other Sherlockians about their favorites. Thanks so much for maintaining the comm and making it such a pleasant and welcoming place to virtually gather! :D
