I've just turned half century old and have lived in Nottingham, UK all my life.

I do not consider myself a writer, in my heart I prefer to beta / edit and have done lots of that over the years. But now with Supernatural and this wonderful website I have been inspired and encouraged to try putting pen to paper.

I may never manage to fill this space with more than a single drabble but I will never forget the thrill of getting my first review. Thank you.

Now if anyone wants me to beta for them, please remember I live in the UK and I hate spoilers. I'm also not keen on crossover stories or those that are pure romance, unless of course it is the twisted supernatural kind. That said I love bouncing ideas around and am quite happy to try working with anyone.

I enjoyed that, from start to finish. Only extra scene I'd have loved to see was Sam's reaction to Jessica's family Christmas.

Have you written or do you have plans to write any more stories of Jessica protecting Sam now that she's a ghost?



Author's Response:

HI!  Thanks so much for the comments!  No, as of this moment, I don't have plans for a Jessica Ghost story.  Had mostly put that in because we saw her again in Provenance (I believe), so that gave me the idea she was still around.  But you never know, my muse does what it wants. :P

 

Have a good one!

Sad and lovely all at the same time. Nicely balanced, and little Dean was just perfect - as if it was Dean born again. Nicely written.

Author's Response: I'm glad you enjoyed it. If Dean dies in the show, they have to have a tiny Dean.

I too am really enjoying this story. Reading about young Dean and Sam is refreshing. 

My only gripe has nothing to do with this story but is about the fact that I keep finding fascinating stories on this forum that I fall in love with only to discover that they are still works in progress. It would be sooooo good if all the talented writers out there could give us some idea when the next chapter will be posted.

I don't want to sound cross I'm just a frustrated reader that hates waiting for the next installment of anything especially great stories like this one.

I'm beggng here please tell me when I can come back and read the rest. Thank you.



Author's Response:

So glad you're enjoying Midge.  As far updating I can only promise that I'll do my best. 

I've got four stories going and I try and take turns posting, that said, I'm about to wrap up my Snowbound soooo.. I'm thinking I'll update this middle of next week.  Hope you stick around and wait for it.. Just a suggestion, tons of the writers on the site already have completed works ( myself included) it's always fun to read a finished story..thanks for the review and I'll update as soon as possible. - K

Hi Kwater,

Am enjoying this story way more than I expected to.

In the previous chapter I love the line "though for the most part the girls that cornered her in various parts of the school wanted nothing more than details on Dean. "  I can so see that happening.

However, this last chapter felt disappointing but I can't work out why. It's probably nothing more than it's quite short and I'm impatient for more. I hope the fact that it is short just means the next chapter will be here so much sooner.

 



Author's Response:

Glad you've enjoyed the story up till this point, sorry the last chapter didn't get it done for you, but it was a setup for the next couple... hopefully the rest of the story will be more to your liking - I'll update soon - K

This gets better and better, but what is Dean going to say when he finds out about the money? I'm already quaking in my boots on behalf of Sam.

Summary: All Sam wants are a few easy hunts to keep Dean occupied.  It does start out that way, but if you take two Winchesters, add two young ladies, stir in an old, old threat, and add a pinch of visions, what sifts out isn't going to be sugar cookies.  Now it will take help for both to survive, and asking for help just isn't easy...     Spoilers through the end of season 2.

Oh I think you should definitely keep writing. Your stories are way too good to keep to yourself.

The 'Nick' twist at the end was a mega surprise, even if I never did believe the Nick Bobby met was the same Nick Dean had been working with. 

Enjoyed this story enough to have read in one day, naughtily ignoring the beta-ing I should be doing. 



Author's Response: Maybe the same Nick, maybe not - but if she is Dean needs to keep one eye firmly over his shoulder! When I get a few other stories under my belt I have feeling the ah, charming, ladies from this one will make a reappearance. So glad you enjoyed this and thanks for the read and review! Angela

I hope you keep writing and updating your longer stories. Am longing for more on your Deacon story.



Author's Response: Thank you!  I haven't abandoned my longer stories, but I've got exams coming up soon and lots of work to be doing in the meantime so my free time for writing is limited.  I'm gonna try my best but updates probably won't happen until next month.

This is an amazing story that I have reread, not for the first time, from start to finish over the last few days. And I doubt it will be the last time I read it.

It is brutal, violent even gross, but balanced by love, understanding and good winning against evil. Somehow it's uplifting to read.

I love the brother moments. You convey so well the understanding between Dean and Sam, the way they communicate so much without words is beautifully written, an absolute joy to read.

Thank you for sharing your muse with us.



Author's Response:

Thank you so much! I'm blushing. It was a very difficult story to write.

That was really a lovely story, thank you. In fact it was much much better than I expected, and I loved the twist that Dean phoned Jess every month and then they pretended never to have met. Wonderful. 

I've always thought all that childhood training must have shown up somewhere in Sam's life at Stanford - killing someone whilst defending Jess just sounds so right. Well done on a very well crafted story.

 



Author's Response: Thank you so much!  This has been my favorite story to write so far (not that there are that many yet - lol) and am very glad to see the positive response.

 
Summary:

He looked at the passenger seat, and for a moment he didn’t understand why it was empty. Then his gaze found the huge hole in the windshield, explaining the shattered glass everywhere. He saw the ridiculously large log that his precious Impala’s front was crunched up against, crumpled and broken. He saw the empty highway the stretched for miles ahead of them.

And he saw the still form of Sam’s unmoving body lying facedown twenty feet away in an obvious puddle of blood on the paved road.

Do I want you to continue this? I don't know... I don't know how this could have a happy ending and I like happy endings.

Oh my giddy aunt - where are the tissues? I want to cry.

This just gets better and better. I'm not sure who I feel most sorry for: Dean for coping with badly hurt Sam so many times in his life or Sam for being hurt so badly, so many times in his life.

Looking forward to the next chapter big time, and hoping not to have to wait too long.

Well done.

Ooooh nasty nasty story - so perfect for halloween.  Too believable, too well written.

I should want to say well done it's a great story but it's just too much. I need to go away and read something happy now before I cry. 



Author's Response: Yeah, this one was never happy - lol. That's actually why it's still a one shot, not sure I'm ready to wallow in this one too long.  I did promise folks I'd try, just have to wrap up other stories first. Thanks so much for the review!

Ok finally braved it and come back for another read of this haunting tale... Any chance of a continuation to this story. What did the 'demon' thing want with Sam? What happened next to Dean? Is there no hope some baddy would let slip to Dean that Sam is still alive in the hope that information would save him?

Author's Response: Yeah, there's hope for more to this - I hadn't intended it that way, but several people asked.  I'm stuck in the middle of buy one get one right now, which is somehow sucking the creative life out of me.  If I can finish it in the next day or two, then this is next up!  Thanks for the review

Found this story from the header / warning for the Weak and Weary and now wonder how I could have missed such wonderful writing all this time. 

Whilst I wonder what Rowan real intentions are, I find myself liking him.  And I just know Jax is going to be good for Sam, give him a purpose and a nearly willing 'punch bag' whilst he's hurting.

Now I'm rushing off to read the Weak and the Weary and hoping we'll get to catch up with all the new characters aswell as Sam, Dean and Bobby.
