Here We Are as In Olden Days

Chapter 2: 2 December, Shopping

Summary:

Shopping lists at Baker Street are a work in progress...

Notes:

So here's the first of my formatted chapters. I use work skins, so you need to have Author Work Skin showing. I hope it's not a mess! I suggest reading this one on a computer for the full effect of handwriting. But a tablet should at least sort of work. In theory. It looks like crap on a phone, though.

Also sorry this chapter is so short. But I really liked the idea of dialogue through a shopping list. Chapter 3 will yield a more normal narrative style, though. No worries. ;)
