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.

Summary:

Thinking back later, Dean wasn’t sure what response he had expected.

Whatever response he might have imagined, nothing could have prepared him for what happened next.

This is amazing!  It starts out so happy then changes very unexpectedly.  You lead us to believe that Sam's just had a nightmare and then you drop the bomb by revealing the nightmare actually predicts the future.  sneaky!

Very good piece.  I love Dean's determination.  I especially like when he tells Sam to trust him to know when there's no hope.  That's a wonderful point.

Author's Response:

Thank you!  It was bugging me that Sam more or less just accepted that he was going to go darkside.  And it's something I thought *someone* needed to say to Sam: if he was going to ask his brother to promise, then he had to trust the promise all the way.

Summary:

John’s weary eyes widened as the realization came. Some place inside of him that he vaguely told himself should be filled with pride was instead pierced with sorrow, and flooded with dread as he registered the thought:

Dean was a murderer.

This is marvelous!  You expressed a father's conflicting emotions perfectly.

"Murdered his son's innocence," and "Dean the hunter" are powerful lines.

I like it!  I'm not certain who is speaking.  I think it might be Sam because he believes in God, whereas Dean doesn't. 

Author's Response: Wow thanks sweety. I´m glad you like it. poems are really weird here.

 
Summary:

 NOMINATED FOR THE SENSUE PEOPLE'S CHOICE AWARDS! VOTE FOR ME AT THE LINK BELOW!!! http://sensue.net/snfa/voting/index.php

He was surely dying. You could not be feeling this and not be dying. He had to be dying. Please, let me be dying! This was too much to live with, Sam wanted it to end, needed it to end. Oh god it hurt so much, so bad, oh god make it stop, make it stop, make it STOP! He couldn’t speak, couldn’t do anything but scream in total anguish, not knowing where his body began or ended, feeling, hearing, seeing nothing but the pain being afflicted on his being. It was pain beyond pain, and he welcomed unconsciousness as his body reached its limit.

NOW COMPLETED!!!

I'm glad Sam finally realized Dean wasn't the one torturing him.  How horrible for them both.

I can't believe you didn't like this chapter!  I love how the pain made Sam feel he had suffered for years and that he couldn't endure one more second, forcing himself into unconsciousness.  I also loved how Dean sat with Sam, helping him to control his breathing.  And that Sam felt himself losing his sanity.  I thought this was an awesome chapter!

Jeez, I didn't think I was going to live through this story.  It was like childbirth all over again.  :-)

Anyway, I very much enjoyed the story so far.  Now that all the agony is temporarily over I'm curious about what happens next.

I was afraid they'd have to go back.  *groan*  At least they got a few days to recuperate before being thrown back into the fray.

..."or perhaps, just another taste of an old one."  Too clever!

Perfect ending---Sam saving Dean and Dean deciding that watching Sam's agony was the worst thing.

Wow Shannon you're really going back, hope you like it..and thanks as always for the R&R

What a spooky cliffhanger!  It gave me shivers!  Are 'they' vampires?  Whatever they are, it would kill Sam and Dean if anything happened to this family.

Using the dog's point of view was a clever idea!

It's so good to see someone new, especially a woman, care for the boys.  I already like Sara.

Is she psychic or does she just have really keen women's intuition?

 
Reviewer: Shannondoah Signed

What a wonderful family!  And what a lucky two-year old, claiming Dean for herself.

I like the mention of the robbers.  It hints of previous trouble and makes me curious.  I'm also curious about where Sara's husband is.  All questions answered in time, I'm sure.

I like that Sam doesn't know the names of the superheroes or Strawberry Shortcake, but we do.  He wouldn't know them, especially not the girl's cartoon character.

Dean isn't the only person wondering how Sara met Bobby.

 
Reviewer: Shannondoah Signed

Geez, between her mother-in-law and geeky suitors, Sara really has her hands full.  She's nicer to mom-mom than I would be.

Thanks for the info on meeting Bobby.  Gotta love Bobby!

Hmmm...laying next to Dean in a hammock under the stars.  That wouldn't suck.

Jack to the rescue!  Dogs are wonderful people!  I really like how you tell the story from his point of view, as well as, that of the real people.

Never heard of BEK's before.  All this time I thought it was vampires.  Something new to learn about---cool!  I hope there's more information about them.

Good to see Sara isn't losing her head for Dean.  A mother has to keep her priorities straight.  I'm glad she's going to the house, but staying safe.  That one thing has really boosted my admiration for her.

Yahoo Sara!!  I love this girl!

Glad you mentioned Sara being a light sleeper.  I would have been very disappointed in her mothering skills if she had stayed asleep when Dean left her.  Sam and Dean not having grown-up with a mother wouldn't know about it.

Love the creative way you killed the BEK's. 



Author's Response:

So glad you've enjoyed Shannon.  Sara is a favorite of mine and I actually have two other stories based on her and Dean.  Thanks as always for the reviews I was thrilled to see someone reading this one as it's been posted for a long while.  Gotta tell you to the kids and the dog are the spitting image of mine..lol.  So I'm glad you liked it. - thanks k

"What's the point of saving humanity if we can't be a part of it?"  A very thought-provoking line.  It made me pause a moment to consider.

I love it!!!  A home for Sam and Dean with a family to love---and especially children!

I'm off to read the sequel...



Author's Response: Sooo glad you enjoyed and hopefully you'll like Milton just as much.  It's a bit lighter and has some laughs so enjoy - K

This is a great piece!  I love so much about it---Sam hunting when he's homesick, Dean saving the day, Dean making the first move by calling Sam.

I guess I never thought of Sam continuing to hunt in college.  That would greatly add to his guilt over Jessica's death.

I also hadn't thought of what Sam continuing to hunt would mean to Dean.  How sad that he thought Sam really wanted to leave him behind.

Great story!  I like that you compare the two points of view, but still come to the same final conclusion.
