Kareem’s writing is fantastic prose. Thanks for posting this. I’m going to read more of his stuff.

  I wish I could write like that. It is so effortless to read his work. To me, that is the mark of a great writer.

    Just FYI, among other things, he co-wrote a number of novels about Mycroft Holmes (Sherlock's brother), which he discusses in this interview[0] and was part of the writers room for the tv show, Veronica Mars -- he describes the experience here[1].

      Interesting. Did he have anything to do with "Glass Onion" other than a Zoom cameo playing among us alongside Angela Lansbury & Stephen Sondheim? edit: imdb says no, I guess that's authoritative?

      Thanks, this is incredible! As a Doyle fan, I didn't know this and am looking forward to reading Kareem's novels.
