did i ever share with anyone the time my mom was telling me about a book she’d found, a book about arthur conan doyle, specifically about the story of arthur conan doyle using the knowledge he’d gained from writing sherlock holmes stories to help get a man off a murder charge? because i think it’s important everyone knows that my mother once said to me, in blissful ignorance, ‘arthur conan doyle used his talents to get a man off’
