Caught in an endless summer

Do you need ideas, motivation, or someone to sit in your doc / watch your screenshare to stop you getting distracted? Do you want to share your WIPs for feedback or hype? Or maybe you’re looking to help others with these things?

If so, hop into the cosy crime discord server on Wednesday 1st July to join our Septembleford community day!

We’re also planning on playing Gartic Phone writing-only mode for inspiration at around 6:30pm BST, which is always fun (and often unhinged gjshfjd)

oh to be a priest solving murder mysteries

Here's the final poll! I had planned on including the three characters who had gotten the most votes in each of the two preliminary polls; since poll two had two characters with the same number of votes in third place, I thought it was fair to include them both in the final.

Preliminary poll one

Preliminary poll two

I'm planning on making a poll to choose the fandom's favourite secondary character, and I'd like you all to help me gather all the names!

For the purpose of this poll, we will define "secondary character" as any Father Brown character who has appeared at least twice in the course of the show, excluding main and recurring characters like Father Brown, the Inspectors, Bunty and lady F, etc. This is a chance to make the less known characters of our favourite show shine!

I’m going to tag a few fandom members just to give this post a little traction, I hope you guys don’t mind. @kembleford1953 @bisidneycarter @sidneycarter @feliciamontagues

OH NEW CHARACTER IS REAL

we are all very cool and stannable, and joining the discord automatically makes you very cool and stannable too

variety of ships welcomed and encouraged — we do not do Ship Wars™ here

custom emojis!! mostly cosy crime screenshots, but also some other random emoji-style ones & reaction image-y ones too. also a sticker of tom chambers standing like a sim with no queued actions
