No Need For Words

by andromeda's song

Sherlock and John assume temporary custody of a young boy named Cecil- a seven year old child with selective mutism. Cecil's silent presence fits easily into their lives, and both Holmes and Watson end up needing to redefine the meaning of family. Adapted from "Four Crows for a Boy" from my Seven Crows story and my first adventure in quasi-parent!lock.

8. Author's Note

Hey everybody!

So I'm working on two stories for Sherlock at the moment; this story and Mind-Reader. I thought I could handle writing both stories at once, but… I can't. I've gotten myself entrenched in the gritty details of Mind-Reader and it's literally impossible for me to focus on the details that need to happen in this story. I really want to give this story the attention it needs, so I'm going to put it on a temporary hiatus until I finish Mind-Reader.

Rest assured that I will get back to it. I don't know when, but I'm not going to abandon this plot. In the meantime, go check out Mind-Reader (wink wink).

Also… I was serious when I said that if you have ideas about what shenanigans John, Sherlock, and Cecil could be up to, let me know. When I do get back to this story, prompts will probably help reheat the crucible.

Thank you for your patience and your kindness. It's always appreciated. :-)

PS: Is anyone else completely and utterly terrified about series three?
