I've been hooked on Supernatural from the pilot episode. I've always liked horror.  Give me the good old fashioned goosebumps on your skin, lock the door of your car, afraid to go into your house kind of terror.  And Supernatural gives me a weekly booster shot.

I started writing with the encouragement (and nagging) of ShinyWinchesterGun. My second story became part of series thanks to the support (and threats) of other new-found friends on the site, Glyconut and Synera.

But I think my real passion is reading.  There are so many amazing stories!  And I leave a review for every chapter I read.  The author has put so much of herself/himself into that chapter that I feel it's only fair to reward their good work.  I believe reviews help writers to progress, give encouragement, and determine our Top Tens.    

The great thing I've found on this site as opposed to other sites I've visited, is that the people here truly care about each other. They lend support, ideas and kicks in the pants when you need it. I've made lasting friends of all ages and from nearly every continent here. This is my online home.

 

I'm honored and thrilled to have been voted the Runner Up in 2009 UnGen awards.  Thanks to everyone who gave me a try and read one of my stories.

Thank you, Chris, for yet another phenomenal piece of art!

This is a story about an uber dirty motel, a bucket of ice, an eighteen-year-old bottle of Jameson, a cherry-red El Camino, and two brothers who love their car. Hurt/ comfort, brotherly moments, and other stuff

Summary:

Photobucket

It was a mistake - Mere words spoken in anger. Words Sam wished he could take back, but sometimes even the most thoughtless of wishes can come true. And with that wish, his brother is gone - his soul ripped from him, taken back through time, and placed into the body of an unborn child by both Lucifer and Michael.

Now with only the reluctant help of Castiel, Sam must somehow convince a twenty-one year old firefighter, who looks alarmingly similar to Dean, that sometimes the bonds of brotherhood can not be broken even with angels and demons conspiring against them. **warning...some minor references to season five**

Thank you Lou for my beautiful banner. I think you know how much it means to me. xx 

This is darker faire (bring a torch to light your way!) than my usual writing and may not be to your taste. It is rated M for theme and language and to all you Sammy girls - Mea Culpa!

Thanks as always to Kirsty for beta-ing me and to many friends for advice and help with this one. Special particular thanks to Jane for your invaluable help without which it might never have got to here (oh and i'l put pirates in the next one!).

And to Kripke - thank you for letting  me play a little with your beautiful boys.

To those who voted for my story in the Ungen awards...Thank you, you made my day!
