Hi All,

So, my name is Kim.  I live in California at the moment but we've lived all over - Oregon, California, Oregon, Guam, Texas, Maryland, California, Japan, Great Britain and then Virginia.  I love moving and going to new places.  My husband has now retired after 20 years of military service and that gave us an amazing life.   

I have three kids who are nearly as fanatical about Supernatural as I am - hard to believe I know.  They are growing up so fast that it scares me. 

I have few hobbies but writing is one of them and, I have to say, the most satisfying.  I also enjoy photography.  My favorite thing to do on a bright sunny day is get in my Mini Cooper and drive someplace - any place.

I don't know what else to say about myself. 

I do want to say to everyone who reads - thank you.  I say it a lot but I really appreciate it that there are people out there reading what I write - wow, the rush that gives me! Review or not, thanks for reading.

Update:  I did something I never knew I'd do - I've written a series.  If you are interested in my Ben Braeden Winchester series read in this order:

Sword and Shield

To The Rescue

Choices

A Walk on the Wild Side

Torture for Torture's Sake

Finally, Dean is acting a little bit better.  Thanks for the quick update because I was ready to do bodily harm to the man!

Gads, I knew it had to happen but I still hoped it wouldn't.  Hasn't Dean learned anything about making deals?  Okay, I'll trust you, as the writer, to make this all okay.  BUT, I'm not going to be happy until it's done......I'm just going to sit here and pout until then so you'd better hurry up.

How sad.  I hope it was just the demon playing with him but I think probably not.  Well done, can't wait for another.

That was great.  Made me smile enough that my co-workers asked me what I was smiling about.  Thanks for the smile!

Author's Response:

Thank you very much!  Much like a Christmas carol, I got it stuck in my head and knew I just had to do something with it.  I'm very glad you found it enjoyable and that it made you smile.

That was amazingly done.  I was just watchin some of season 1 last night so I really loved every minute.  And how true and sad, "What's worse the words that condemn him are, 'I'm proud of you.'"  Great poem and great ending!  I can't believe English isn't your native language.

Author's Response: wow Kim, thanks for the sweet words, even more appreciated when coming from an author i enjoy.

Great job.  I really like this series.  Too bad we have to wait until the end of season 3 for the next.

Author's Response: yeah well, don't say it too loud, the season could be over in february..:(  Thanks for the R&R.

Thank you so much.  I love stories that come up with a plausible way to get Dean singing.  I would LOVE to see this happen on the show but I don't think Kripke will ever give us this pleasure.

I really liked that.  I liked the contrast between the memory and the present.  I also loved that Dean in both of them was so caring for his brother.  I've helped with suturing before and can't imagine doing it on someone I know.

 Another great story.



Author's Response: Thank you so much! Suturing someone you love, how hard is that? I seem to enjoy moving between their younger and older selves. It gives me a better grasp on them as I write.

Reviewer: lostatc Signed starstarstarstarstar
Date: 11/01/08 Title: Chapter 6: Epilogue

Loved it.  I guessed pretty early that it was Sam - the height and the hair did it for me.  The coffee was too subtle and kept switching for me to use it as a clue.  I was too chicken to put my guess in writing because I didn't want to be wrong.  :)  I really loved this story.  I love anything with a little psychology in it.  I also loved the Aussie slang.  I lived in Britain for four years and miss the language so much (I know a world of difference between Aussie and Brit BUT there are a lot of similarities the only one you got me on was Donk and I LOVED that because Dean would so look down on that one). 

Thanks for a great read and entertaining story - one of the best.



Author's Response: Well done for guessing - I tried to keep it as vague as possible, but there were a few clues scattered around - good for you picking them up. I'll have to make sure the next twisty one is even more twisty...LOL. Ahh, the donk - that was another last minute addition - at the suggestion of my aunt. It was her brother that Kayla's uncle was based on, and my uncle did own all those cars, and many more. And he did like a big, well-tuned donk. If he'd been still alive when SN started, he would have fallen in love with Metallicar. And yes, Aussies and Poms are pretty similar in speech - my beta is actually a Pom, and a damned good friend. Thanks for reading, and reviewing - I really appreciate it...Jules

I love the banter between John and Dominic.  I was ready for one of them to throw a bunch at any minute.  Well, done.

Looking forward to more.

Reading as you break these two has be wonderfully painful - yes, sick and demented.  I hope John shows up soon and kicks some Father....well you get it.

Thanks!  Great read.

Still completely enjoying this story.  Brainwashing it terrible and it's going to be difficult to get Dean to understand what's true or not.

Thanks for a great read.  Action was well done in these past two chapters!

Almost had him.  But, he's breaking.  I gotta tell you, I hate this process.  It's very much a military thing and I've seen it done first had.  It's a gross way to treat people and it irritates that heck out of me.  I know why you're doing it though, I just hate the reality of it.  It works in this story and is very well written.  I admire that you're not allowing a quick fix because in the context of this story, this would never be fixed quickly.

Thanks for a great read.

For the first time, I wonder what'll happen if they don't find me. My mind starts to stumble over itself as I allow the possibility of dying alone in this place to register, and I suddenly feel like all of my insides are constricting, because this can't be happening, I can't be dying, I'm only nine years old, my family needs me...

I doubt anyone else has ever spent a New Year's Eve that was worse than this one.

That was great!  I can't wait to read the others.  I don't think it's too mature for a nine year old - especially not a particularly bright one.

Well done!

 
Summary:

I wonder if I’m a monster; not the kind we hunt, but the kind that people read about or see in a movie and wonder how a person could be so wrong. I think that maybe I’m the kind of father that children grow up determined not to be, that daughters are frightened of and sons are shut down by and wives are ashamed of. I keep my eyes facing forward as I search intently for the black van I know carries my youngest son, and I wonder how my oldest can stand to know my blood runs in his veins.

I wonder how either of my boys can bear to love me....

I doubt anyone has ever had a New Year's Eve worse than this one.

Just as good as the other.  Even though I knew the outcome I couldn't wait to find out how events happened for John.  Now I can't wait to find out how Dean feels during all of this.
