WIP Amnesty: SPN fic

A month later Bill called her, five days into a hunt, to tell her that he wasn’t coming back for another ten at least, and that a man was going to come and pick up a box sometime before that. He told her where the box was, that the guy’s name was John Winchester, and as usual that he loved her and to give a kiss to Jo. Ellen poured herself a shot

Wow. I loved this. You gave it such texture and feeling.

Thanks. I quite liked how it had turned out so far... which is another reason I was sorry to let it go, and also why I clung to it so long, even though I couldn't finish it. Ellen rocks.

There's some great stuff in here -- I especially liked how you showed Ellen's marriage to Bill, how down to earth and visceral this is.

Thanks. I didn't want it to be a fairytale marriage, but one that worked nonetheless... and that would leave a realist chink for John to worm his way in. I wanted a complicated situation once Bill's tragic demise rolled up, and Ellen having conflicting thoughts about the both of them, and working through them by focussing entirely on Jo. Alas, it didn't happen. I still look at this, thinking 'how could I go on?' and my mind goes blank.
