Oh man, I love seeing more of the boys with their Pa. They're such a good team, arguments and all.

Thank you. I enjoy writing it. I'm glad you are sticking with it!

You really capture a lovely sense of period here. If only you didn't have any outside obligations and could write faster! *g*

saberivojo February 4 2011, 17:29:41 UTC

Thanks. I agree with writing faster. It's a miracle that you can even remember what it is about! That is why I keep sticking all the old chapters up there. I'm glad you especially like the Westerny feel to it, you write such beautiful, accurate historical pieces, it's good to know that it works for you.

I was SO glad to see a new chapter! Really! Stuck here at home with snow and ice and brutal cold, this made things so much warmer ( ... )

Wow, what a lovely, detailed comment. You are are right about the Cohens. It's amazing to have even been thought of in the same comment!

*blushes*

I know what you mean though about cowboy vs contemporary characters. I spent most of my life reading Louis L'Amour, the finest western writer around, and spent my days in classic western movies. The western man, and woman too, are a unique breed and writing them can be tricky. Especially if you are a wordy b like myself! And while I am sure there were cowboys who liked nothing better than to tell a long story around the campfire, I have always tended to gravitate to the less talkative cowboy as a main character.

I'm particularly happy that there is western flavor and dynamic without losing the intrinsic Winchesterness that makes our boys who they are.

Glad you are still reading. I hope to get the next chapter up sooner than this one. *headesk*

I can't believe you guys are still reading with the pace of my writing!

Thanks...Cash agrees huh? I'm gonna forever hound you about that lovely icon!

Glad a true western fan enjoys, it makes my cowgirl heart sing.

It's not long enough! LOL!! I'm amazed that you were able to write this much, as busy as you are.

They stop in the trees, just before the little clearing, all three men sitting quietly in the saddle. Pa is in the middle, Dean on his right and Sam on his left. This had me thinking of Bonanza, with "Pa" in the middle, and Little Joe and Hoss on either side. That's not a bad thing :) I love this verse.

saberivojo February 5 2011, 20:14:02 UTC

I was kind of thinking of that two. *hums the theme song to Bonanza*

I know it is not long enough. I am a bad, bad fangurl. I offer you fic and then take a year to almost finish it.

But it IS almost done - I think and then perhaps I will be able to do some oneshots.

I love this verse. Thank you so much. I love it too, not because I wrote it but because I love the thought of the Winchesters on horses. And roping doggies. And campfires.

Plus I love having John around. *grins*

It's just that this particular fic has gone on far too long. I need to hogtie her, wrestle her down and brand the sonofabitch.

brigid_tanner February 6 2011, 02:36:33 UTC

I need to hogtie her, wrestle her down and brand the sonofabitch.NOO!!!! That's not what I meant! I'd like this one to go on for a long time! Cause John and boys on horses is awesome :) You just take your time and give us updates when you can. Then we all have something to look forward to. Cause if you finish this one, we're just gonna hound you for a sequel! LOL!! I grew up on westerns, and you write the crossover of Winchesters/Old West so well that I'd like to see it go on forever. Just as long as you take time to study for your dosage exams :)

Thanks, hon.

I don't think I'm ever gonna stop writing the Winchesters and the Old West but maybe there will be time stamps or something. I just want to tie up the loose ends on this one so that the folks who have been following have some resolution.

Just a thought...

I think when I am finally done this whole fic, I may drop a note to the folks who started following but dropped off reading. That is not a criticism, I mean how can anyone follow a story for a year? Plus, it is not really easy to follow because each chapter is a different name and unless you are my friend, you might not realize that it really is the continuation of the never ending fic. Maybe I will just rename the whole fic to "Put Away Wet" and then chapters from there. What do you think? It's not a ploy for comments, more that I feel obligated to those lovely folks who started reading a WIP and might have thought it never got finished.

What do you think?
