So maybe I ought to write something on my bio page huh?

So the rumours are true, I am, in fact, English. Although I'm assured that's nothing to be ashamed of. It just means we have to wait four months for new SN eppies!

I'm - er - a mature lady who works for Nottinghamshire Police in a Murder Incident Room. Which, unfortunately, doesn't mean I get to answer the phone, "Homicide!" in my best New York accent. Much as I'd like to and one day I will.

I've never really written fan fiction before Supernatural came into my life, although I've tinkered with writing since I was knee high to a grasshopper. I've been hopelessly in love with Jensen Ackles since Dark Angel and am still reeling from getting to put my arm around him at the Asylum convention. Unfortunately I chickened out of proposing to him, but it's only a matter of time until he realises what he's been missing all his life...

Apart from Supernatural, my other obsession is music, favourite bands being Goo Goo Dolls, Dishwalla, Lifehouse, Switchfoot, Muse, Keane and Powderfinger.

Summary:

Underneath the desert, something's stirring. An ancient monster, demi-gods and spirit dancers and more twists than you can shake a rock-salt-loaded-sawn-off at: Can our intrepid heroes figure out who's on their side and who's sneakier than a used-car salesman? Or is this the end of the line for the Winchesters...

You did a great job of making plot exposition interesting in this chapter!  No easy task, I can tell you!

And I still love Dean's "Space Coyote"!!



Author's Response:

Did I?  Great, I appreciate you saying so.

That Simpsons line just will not leave me alone so I was giving it to Dean in the hopes he would exorcise it for me.  Didn't work.  Think I might need some Sammy Latin, too.

Thanks for reviewing.

Gah!  The boys and the purple haze!  What's going on?  (Heh...I might know someone with an answer to that one...!)

Can I just "ditto" what Tree said here?  I love your Dean AND your Sam, BJ.  It's rare to find someone who writes both boys equally as brilliantly. 

For anyone reviewing, BJ's having "technical issues" so please bear with her - she might not manage to reply to reviews! 



Author's Response:

Hey, Sharron!

Yep, still having those technical issues and hoping that I get a computer going again soon!  Talk about withdrawal!  But then work is also kicking my butt something awful!

You are too kind, but thanks for all the support.  Dean's always been my guy, but I love that I feel more confident writing Sam and that it appears I'm hitting the mark with him too.

Working on this project, being "part of the team" like Dean enjoyed in HB has been a highlight of this year.  I wish I hadn't been so absent for much of the later stuff, (apologies again to all my fellow conspirators) but RL has a way of dictating the time management stuff.  It was really fortunate that my chapter came up early and I could get it done before I got so dang busy.

My great joy was working in tandem with you and knowing that I could set up this cliffie and hand it off to such capable hands.  I love where you took it...

Glad to see our story is doing so well.  Later, B.J.

Really enjoyed this unexpected trip to Wee!chester land!  You wrote Mini!Dean and Micro!Sam so well!

Author's Response:

Thank you so much.  I know the chapter kind of jumps out of the story but I really wanted to write out the shooting lesson.  I was very happy when my chapter lined up in such a way that I could.

And thanks for the compliments on the young boys.  I like writing that age of kids, its an interesting age where they are just beginning to expand their limits and become young men and women rather than children.

Thanks again.

Ah, you make caves exciting Petra!  Great chapter and a fab cliffie!


Author's Response:

Three awesome compliments in one! Thanks so much, praise from a much admired team member is very precious.

Extra thanks for your beta way back when it was suddenly my time to write and the pressure was on. I appreciated the benefit of your eagle eye.

Jane, you write with a really poetic turn of phrase, and yet you're equally adept at the action sequences!  I'm jealous!

And the boys are finally free of the caves!  Freeeeeee I tell you!!! 



Author's Response:

Hiya Sharon,

 Thank you for your very kind words and for the Americanisationing beta (haa, another long made up word lol).  At least I didn't use any torches or vests (who would have known just how much fun you could have with a vest!!) lol

Yep, they're out and ready to be mended for the next time!!

:) Jane x

Damn, its hard to describe rock in interesting and varied ways!  Thanks for leading us into such a predicament! This chapter is a great hook into the story!

Only the Winchesters could make climbing a mountain of putrefying human remains this attractive!!  Oh and congrats on getting the boys that little bit closer to getting out of those interminable caves!

Author's Response:

Thanks hunny, really appreciate you takin time to review me! Hugs ya for it. Weird how the bit of gore - a mere third of the chappie- overshadows all the other sections... guess it was the best part then, LOL.

Hugs, Ilka

This was an absolute masterclass in how to tie lots of disparate story threads from many different authors into one nice neat tidy bow. 

You did an absolutely incredible job of bringing everything together in one chapter, Phoebe, providing a satisfying explanation for everything that had happened previously in the story.  I think you managed to reference every chapter that had come before somehow! 

I honestly didn't think such a tidy climactic chapter was possible but you did it, and you did it with style. 

Well done on giving the story the coherent (almost) ending it deserved!

Well done on bringing it all to a satisfying conclusion, Cal.  And thanks for organising all of this - you did a brilliant job!
