When the smoke cleared, Watson blinked open his eyes. For a confused moment, he thought he heard his own voice shouting in a harsh and urgent tone, "Watson! Watson, damn you, man, wake up!"

I love typos and malapropisms. In the long-ago days of fandoms past, I used to keep a list by the computer in which I jotted down any amusing typo that I found. I've long since lost the list, but I can still remember some of them, and I've been meaning for years to try to write a story that included as many of them as possible. I've still not done that… but over the last few weeks I've been having fun writing small fragments based on some of my favourites.
