Sherlockian Interview - DJ Tyrer
Posted by Steve Emecz on
To celebrate the Kickstarter for Volumes 46-48 of the MX Book of New Sherlock Holmes Stories we're interview the contributors.
Today it's DJ Tyrer.
Tell us a little about yourself – Where you live and your main hobbies.
I studied History and Welsh History at the University of Wales at Aberystwyth. I live in the seaside city of Southend-on-Sea in Essex, England, close to the world’s longest pleasure pier. When I’m not writing, my hobbies and interests include history, roleplaying, wargaming, and conlanging.
What’s the name of your story in this collection, and what is it about (with no spoilers)?
My story is called The Neckinger Mills Mystery and sees Holmes investigating when Inspector Bradstreet is assaulted whilst investigating a smuggling gang, seeking both to bring his attackers to justice and crack the mystery that brought him to Neckinger Mills in Southwark.
