In the late half of Season 9, I decided to do something I’d never done: participate in a Supernatural Fan Fiction contest. I resolved not to do any slash but instead write up a big budget, movie style, possible “finale” to the show which tied up loose ends. I chose it as my Auld Lang…

You could say I am a Newbie among the other writers on WFB. I have been writing articles almost a year now but even if I have only a few published, there are already articles that I regard as my favorite.
The Mechanics of Supernatural: Six Years Later In 2009 when I first wrote this short piece, I was a newer member of the WFB writing family and my life was in a very different place. At the time, Supernatural was constantly amazing me with not only the forethought going into the storylines but the longevity…
Happy New Year everyone! Here’s Supernatural in the news for the last week of 2015.

It was an honor to write about his various writing prior to Supernatural, all of his episodes, and to capture what makes his writing pop for us fans. Getting the chance to connect with him via Twitter for an impromptu interview…

It was a deeply personal essay, and I was a little nervous about exposing myself in writing it, but I had come to marvel at this little show and the effect it had on my life, and I wanted to express all those feelings and share…

Supernatural is an old friend, and like many an old friend, I have had good times and bad times with…
So, I came up with this so called “great idea” and approached Nightsky right away. Let’s have each writer pick one of their “greatest hits” to share during the holidays. You know, a gift to those that have long forgot the articles gone by. Yeah, great idea, until I had to come up with my…
Supernatural around the web this week.
