Oops - missed a chapterette - sorry about that, Beth. 

Love the reassurance - Dean's still the big brother, even though he's hurt. And can't blame Sam for worrying - Dean could have been killed and never found.

I was wondering where the loggers fit in!  I love Sam being all protective and vengeancy.  Hee.  I'm SO GLAD that you completed your novel!  Here's to getting it published now, too!

Author's Response:

Hey there! Thank you so much for the congratulations on the novel. I just have to get it edited, and then I'll work on getting it published, hopefully.

I'm glad you liked this chapter, I love a protective Sam, too. You should really enjoy the next chapter--it's up now and has lots of protective, vengeful Sam in it. :)

Thanks again for taking the time to read and review!

Ah I see a bossy nurse Sam, good, Dean needs to stay in bed and rest, good update,

I've just discoverd NaNoWriMo but am too late myself to participate - good luck with it, so 2000 words a day I think! That calls for RedBull or much coffee, and no distractions, so stop playing with the boys...lol

Parking lessons must be on par with hunting lessons for Dean... how could Sam forget that?!! Nice touch that Sam admits that, just as Dean's only thought was Sam - his determination was not just to survive, but to make it to Sam to check he was ok, Sam's overidding thought was for his brother's wellbeing also.

Have run out of chapters to turn to, will be waiting on your wrap up. I have really enjoyed this piece, you cen see all the hard work that has gone towards it, and the format of a drabble does well to challenge your considerable writing skills. This was a pleasure - thanks for the read!

Author's Response:

Awww, thank you for the WONDERFUL review and rating--I really appreciate it. I'm so glad you've been enjoying the story, it's been a tremendous challenge to write within the word count limits.

A couple more chapters are up now, if you're still interested. I'd love to hear what you think of them! :)

Again loved the humor here - nice foil for all the tension.

Tense, exciting, thrilling.... I'm trying to condense my reviews... it 'aint working!!! So awed by how well you are playing out your story in this format, I would find even the 4oo word extended drabbles a challenge. This section of the story is so true to Dean, love that Jack actually does get smackedand fell that my thirsting after a little frat boy violence is justified when he continues to mouth off after Dean saves him. Loved the "Wasn't a friggin' deer" line.

Reviewer: CdeWinter78 (Signed) · Date: 04/11/09 09:17 AM · On: Into the woods

Hurt and wounded Dean leading the College Camping brigade... how sunny !!! :) Really liked the way that his need to get to Sam even overides his "M'fine" clause. What is the threat to Sammy though? Does he believe Sam's still in the woods? Ok I'll just go ahead and answers those questions in the next chapter.... LOL.... so engrossed in this you actually have me typing to myself???!!!

Reviewer: CdeWinter78 (Signed) · Date: 04/11/09 09:08 AM · On: Glimmer of hope

The small section's of brotherly banter grounds this I think, and sets it well, so if the memories of Dean's time in the woods are dark, hazy or dramatic; they are balanced by that familiar Winchester squabbling. (This is not a criticism - a bit worried it came out like that, I am actually just admiring how you have constructed these chapters.)

Enjoyed the double drabble - for me I thought your story was getting there, though perhaps this part of your tale needed more fleshing out (no pun intended). So ham fisted Loggers working for something tall dark and toothy??? More like it - don't really know why that didn't quite sit with me, the fact that Dean was taken out by humans. Of course it would have happened often with their lifestyle!

Liked the progression of his thoughts as he realizes where he is - practical panicker Dean's first thoughts (maybe afet ouch?) is that Sammy was spared this, very in character!

Reviewer: CdeWinter78 (Signed) · Date: 04/11/09 08:38 AM · On: Goodwill worn away

Loggers? Really? Hmm would not have guessed that. Still your descriptives are amazing here- especially when you describe Sammy's eyes. But my favorite has to be "Goodwill worn away by brotherly love", it plays to the very heart of the dark roads their family devotion takes each of them in the cannon.

Reviewer: CdeWinter78 (Signed) · Date: 04/11/09 08:29 AM · On: "Steady, big brother. I gotcha."

Like the way you catalogue their emotions. It cuts straight to where we need to be (without all those flowery words I think you must be missing... trust me though your tale is not lacking because they are!!) Action Sammy is a great way to end here.
