Tonight I look towards the next adventure. I cried last night, much more than I thought I would. At nearly forty, I should be … Continue reading Carry On

I didn’t really enter the fandom until I after attending my first con. I inexplicably loved Supernatural, but I wasn’t in the fandom--I didn’t belong to any pages or groups, didn’t have a “fave” or follow the cast on social media.
