![]() Author has written 4 stories for Supernatural. They say the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem. So, here it goes... Hello, my name is Lynda and I am an addict. No, not drugs or gambling or alcohol or any of those nasty vices that strike millions across the globe. I'm addicted to Supernatural! Corny, I know, but that's just how I roll! "My own brain is, to me, the most unaccountable of machinery - always buzzing, humming, soaring, roaring, diving, and then buried in mud. And why? What's this passion for?" -- Virgina Woolf wrote that and I think it about sums up how I feel about my own mind. I'm not sure if what I have buzzing around up there is some excellent piece of work, but I'm making darn sure to put it to paper and put it out there for someone to enjoy. I've been writing as far back as I can remember - short stories, poems, one liners, anything I could think of. Then a little over three years ago, I was struck with a desire to write so strong that I put fingers to keyboard and just let them fly. Eventually, my muse took a vacation from that story and now it sits on the back burner to be completed later. I'm not upset about that because I always have things running through my head. I put them down when I hit a roadblock and come back to them later down the line. I have a vivid imagination (product of being an only child with a single mom who loved horror and fantasy movies, I think) and that always carries over into my dreams too. One day, I was recounting a crazy dream I had involving Sam and Dean Winchester (not sure where it came from, but it was a good dream...) and the person I was telling it to gave me the strangest notion - write a Supernatural story. So I thought, "what the heck?" and started writing. That's how "The Fool's Trap" was born. When I finished that story though, I felt like there was another one in there, another one dying to get out. So I started to write again. "On The Menu" burst from my mind and through my fingers, flowing like water from a waterfall. Normally, I don't let other people read my writing - poor self esteem and nonexistent confidence - but I decided to let some people who enjoy the show take a look. They loved them and encouraged me to pursue my own writing. Ironically, a few months after completing it, I got to see Eric Kripke's take on the very creatures I used in my second story. Searching around the internet for something to kill the time, I found this site and decided to bite the bullet and post my two stories to get some unbiased opinions. Gotta say, it has been a pleasure and a pleasant surprise, to hear other people's reactions to what I put out there. Now, enough about my writing and a little about myself. I'm a late-twenty-something gal who watches a myriad of TV shows from Supernatural to Leverage to Parenthood. I have an eclectic taste in music and art too. I work a 8-4 job that's not that exciting, but allows me to spend some time editing and sharing my crazy creations. I also decorate cakes, love to bake and cook, and can't get enough of the publishing world. I'm usually reading 2-3 books at a time, varying in different genres. I live in a small, semi-rural town in Pennsylvania and have traveled only within the continental US so far. One day, I hope to see some of the wondrous world - Australia, Italy, Ireland, and England being in the top ten. So that's it. That's all I can think of to say about me. Please, check out and review my stories if you get the chance. Below is the list of things I've posted so far. Supernatural: The Fool's Trap (Introducing an OC) On The Menu The Interim (A bunch of one-shots to fill in the blank between S5 & S6) “You see things and you say, 'Why?' But I dream things that never were and I say, 'Why not?'" -- George Bernard Shaw Fiction is like a spider's web, attached ever so slightly perhaps, but still attached to life at all four corners. Often the attachment is scarcely perceptible. -- Virginia Woolf Just found out I placed 19th out of 100 entries for Television/Movie Script Category in the 79th Annual Writer's Digest Writing Competition...Shock doesn't even begin to cover how I felt finding that out! Wow! It fires up the pistons and makes me want to write even more!*(October 15th, 2010) |
