I make my home in a small little house in upstate New York. It's not much, but it's mine and that's what matters.  By day you'll find me toiling away at a hospital as a secretary.  By night, I'm a writer. My secret life if you will.

While Supernatural is my current favorite obsession, I enjoy writing for several different fandoms--Emergency, Starsky & Hutch, and the Leandros Bros. books by Rob Thurman. I'm also a published author, having two books of poetry ("Doorway to a Soul" and "In the Quiet Stillness") out there.

I love to make friends and meet new people.  Supernaturalville has provided an incredible opportunity to do just that and it's been a blast.  Writing and reading fanfic is really one life's great pleasures.

Oh, goody--now comes the good stuff--Dean kickin' some Robbie butt.  lol  But maybe not without some ouchies first??  LOL  Sorry--it's that evil Hurt!Dean monster coming out in me.

I love how you had Sam make valiant attempts to free himself.  Hate it when people make him too wimpy.  :-)

Great update!



Author's Response:

Thanks Vanessa!

Yes, the good stuff is definitely on its way...don't worry about that little monster hiding in you. I think we all have it inside us somewhere!

I do not believe Sam is whimpy at all and I am the last person to make him as such. While he may be the bitch at some points, my boy can really hold his own when he needs to!

Thanks again!
