Hi Amara, I'm pretty sure I'd meant to, but haven't, commented in your lj for fics and to thank you so much for the supremely gorgeous bound versions of your "Broken" and "Keeper" verses (current as of 10/07) from you at last year's Wincon. I was usually seen with cane in hand and too many bags to carry...I believe my hair was red at that time...a version of it anyway. I was so so happy we met and you were kind enough and (hopefully I wasn't too persistent in bugging you - I do have other lj friends...no stalker chick am I) you had the extra so I didn't have to choose just one! They're still among my favorite ever zines, and meeting you was a stand out experience for me. I meant to ask you prior to uh...this year's Wincon (which I unfortunately am unable to attend) if you were going to do the same this year and was hoping to have some use for my practiced "Sammy Puppy Eyes". Even though I'm one of the aforementioned "five who don't comment" 99% of the time - and I don't even write SPN (or any 'verse) fic, I still wanted to go and see everyone again but couldn't b/c 1) it ended up scheduled right between two previously scheduled cons announced when I was completely broke - especially for plane tickets - and 2) right when I decided that eating was optional and I would go to Wincon 08, dammit!, I relapsed. So between con insanity, and in constant SPN fandom catch-up mode I have spent most of this summer and fall in various stages of pain and numbness and difficulty getting around or even online *is relating to you now* and the only treatment time I was able to schedule (back in August) fell during this freakin' week and next, and Includes this weekend. I hope you all have a blast!! And write more! I'll be crossing my fingers that there will be a next year, and I'll go then. I'll just be here not in Baltimore :( catching up on more fic online...or I could re-read "Keeper"...
Oh...and your cursing is not nearly enough to make a sailor blush...speaking from my own experience anyway :D
