#221BeMine
Roses are red
Violets are blue
This poem is lacking
But we’re hosting #221BeMine for you!
Love is in the air, and on February 14th, we’ll be hosting our annual celebration of Holmesian affection on our Twitter account @BakerStBabes!
Whether you love or hate Valentine’s Day, we’re here for you. In past years, we’ve celebrated the attachments (or lack thereof) between friends, lovers, siblings, clients, archenemies, and everything in between. Tongue-in-cheek, serious, macabre, and silly, this event always brings out the creativity of Sherlockians everywhere.
Use hashtag #221BeMine to participate. Poetry, quotes, art, memes — it’s all fair game. (FYI, we will keep our account SFW).
We’ll be on Twitter through the day, reading and retweeting as much as we can, but follow the tag to see the full spectrum of fun & hilarity.
There’s no need to spend Valentine’s Day alone when you can spend it with Sherlockian friends from around the world, celebrating the characters and stories we love.
Won’t you #221BeMine?
