The Science of Fear//Book Three

Author Note

My God, this went fast :D I mean, there were times when I was like, 'Shesh, this is taking longer than it should,' but now that I really think about it this book was finished really fast. The next one, I'm certain, will take much longer.

On another note that needs it's own paragraph, I am thinking of making a playlist of songs that remind me of Teddy and this Saga on 8tracks, but I NEED YOUR HELP! Guys, if you've got any ideas as to what songs I should put on the playlist, leave a comment, let me know! I've got some music in mind but I need more! Hit me up, guys :D

 Now let me take the time to talk quickly about the next book. Oooo, the next book! The last book in the saga! When I first got the idea of writing a Sherlock fanfic it was the Fall episode that made me really want to do it. I knew I couldn't start there though because I felt like it wouldn't be enough, you know? I wanted some depth for my character so I had to back it up a bit, build Teddy up and get people to know who she is. It took a lot of self restraint to not just rush through these past three books willy-nilly but I've managed it. It's taken nearly two years but finally I can start working on the last book, the book I had planned first.

Yep, I've had the plot for the last book planned since mid/late 2012 and you guys will get to find out what happens very soon! Yay! Now people other than myself and my sister will know what happens!

But warning: Lots of stuff happens. LOTS. There will be laughter, there will be tears, there will be anger, there will be happiness. But enough about that, now it's time to acknowledge those who made this fanfic possible!

Thank you to Ariane DeVere for her transcripts. You are Heaven sent!! Without you this fanfic, and so many others out there, would've taken sooo much longer to complete. Thank you!

Thanks to Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat for bringing 'Sherlock' back to life for this new generation. Please get season four out ASAP, I asked this before in my last book and I'll ask again and I'll keep asking until it's delivered. And please don't kill off Molly. I have a nagging fear that it'll happen and YOU CAN'T DO THAT. Thank you.

Thank you to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and your super awesome writing skills. I'm sorry you don't like him, but still. Thanks.

Thanks to my parents who pay for the wifi ;D

Thanks to my lil' sister who is there when I need to discuss fanfiction plans out loud and pretends to listen to make me feel good.

Thanks to all those musicians out there who keep me going with their awesome songs! Hopefully there'll be a playlist out sometime during the next book so people can listen to your beautiful voices while they read.

Thank you to me for not giving up. You've done it girl! You've nearly finished your first saga! You get to write the last book and put all those plans you have onto paper! (Well, laptop, but you get the gist.) Yay! Here's hoping you'll finish it before you finish school (Challenge accepted.)

And, last but never, ever least, thank you my lovely readers. You guys keep me going, it's always you guys :) Thank you for the reads, votes and comments. Every time I get a notification saying that someone has voted/commented/added my stories to their library I get a nice warm feeling that makes me smile, the kind of feeling people get when their pizza arrives. Thank you, guys, and I hope you guys will stay tuned for the final.

The next book, 'The Science Of Sacrifice' will be out in a couple weeks. I've got practice exams coming up in five weeks time so I really need to focus on that, so until then my lovelies, I wish you a happy and wonderful life. Those of you who are starting their summer holidays, get a tan if you want, eat some ice cream, buy me a plane ticket so I can come over and join you, and have fun. Those of you who are in the middle of the school year (like myself) keep working hard! You're nearly there! Summer will be here in December and we shall be free!! Have some fun while you're at it!

I hope all of you have fun, and I can't wait to see you guys again :)

xoxo
