On top of the runs of tales about the exploits of Sherlock Holmes and his associate Dr John Watson for which he is famous, Arthur penned on a numerous variety of themes, both fictional and non-fictional. Arthur studied at the University of Edinburgh Medical School, where he was a student of Joseph Bell, whose deductive systems encouraged his student much well that the instructor turned into the principal example for Holmes. Arthur started his authorship while still learning, and he had his first book, The Mystery of the Sasassa Valley, printed in Chambers's Journal. He kept on producing short stories both fictional and non-fictional, during his literary career, and had more than 200 tales and essays circulated.Arthur wrote the short tale, A Scandal in Bohemia, in The Strand Magazine, a "story which would change his life", conferring to his biographer, Andrew Lycett, as it presented Holmes and Watson to a large crowd; the two players had given the plotline of Arthur?s first fictional book, A Study in Scarlet, which was printed in Beeton's Christmas Annual. The tale in The Strand was incorporated in 6 series, circulated in consecutive months. They were very much praised by the audience, and the editors of the magazine authorized another 6 tales, and 12 more series. Arthur, afraid of having his other writings outweighed by his storied sleuth, slayed his invention off in The Adventure of the Final Problem.
