Summary:

Your Sorrow for Another Coin

Winchesters always needed protecting, from themselves as much as anything else – so maybe it was no surprise that Mama added all that thyme and basil and oregano into spaghetti sauce every time a Winchester crossed their doorstep.

I love this story and I really, really hope you choose to continue it. I'm pretty picky when it comes to OCs (it doesn't matter if it's a romance, or just friendly, vindictive, or otherwise) but Alice and her mother fit into this world wonderfully and I find myself becoming as attached to them as I am the Winchesters.

Your use of the language is also so charming. The descriptions are both real and whimsical and create a really pleasurable read. I'm honestly shocked this has so few reviews (and hoping that maybe I can talk you into working on this again ^_^)



Author's Response:

Thank you so much!  I am definitely continuing it - I'm already halfway through the next chapter.  Unfortunately, I've been fighting a couple of serious health issues which have detracted from my desire to write...but I will persevere. ;)

Thank you so much for your feedback on Alice and Jane.  This story was something of an answer to the witches portrayed in Malleus Maleficarum and I struggled to make them fit into canon as well as making them well-rounded people.  I always worry about my OCs, so I appreciate it when people like them them.  Probably more than I should in this case, as I am attached very attached to the idea of Jane and Alice and what they mean to me as a model of "female strength" within a canon that doesn't focus on it.  Sorry, I tend to ramble...

And I have worked hard on the narrative style.  It's actually quite different than what I've used in other stories - it's more like writing poetry than prose, and it sadly writes more slowly than I would like it to, even on my best days. ;-P

As for reviews?  I'm happy to get them.  Doesn't matter how many I get, really.
