Supernatural fic: Sam's Journal

This is for [livejournal.com profile] derry667 -- your ficathon story, at long last! I hope it was worth the wait (ha.) and bears at least some resemblance to what you asked for...

Title: Sam's Journal
Fandom: Supernatural
Rating: PG-13 for language, because Sammy's been hanging around Dean too much. Gen.
Spoilers: General spoilers up to the end of the second season, and big ones for "All Hell Breaks Loose 2".
Summary: The journal was Ellen's idea.

Notes: Mostly images, with plain-text version included for most pages.

YAY! I'm so happy that you liked it. I wanted to do justice to your story, especially since it took me so long to finally write it.

And to top it all off... Well, you already know how I feel about Dean's selflessness really being more of a strength to be admired rather than some sort of weakness to be derided or pitied.

*grin* Well, that was the whole crux of the story, right there -- its purpose for existing. And SO difficult to develop in fic form! I started several other stories (regular written ones, not picture-fics) but I couldn't come up with a way to expressly develop that theme which wouldn't be either ludicrously heavy-handed, or so subtle that it's basically in line with what we see on the show itself. Which led to the idea of having Sam say it directly to the reader...

Hee ... the acupuncture conversation must have been very entertaining, indeed! It was HARD coming up with different ideas to stick in the margins -- I'd originally envisioned the margins having a lot more notes and scribbling of stuff that Sam had found in their Dad's journal or online, but it was harder to brainstorm ideas for THAT than for the whole rest of the story put together!

And "Saint Dean of Winchester" cracked me up when I was writing it, too. *g*

I really am very happy and squee-ful that you liked it so much! *squees*
