Fandom review 2021
Jan. 9th, 2022 07:13 pmSo, we thought 2020 was bad, then 2021 stepped up to the plate. In some ways it was a little better than 2020, and in other ways it was profoundly worse.
The Supernatural fandom, and fandom in general was dealt an irretrievable blow in April 2021 when we lost![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jj1564. The enthusiasm, friendship and joy that she brought to the fandom and to her friends is sorely missed and will never be forgotten.
But this post is not here to dwell on the negatives, I’m only going to focus on the fandom positives of the year. So, here goes…

Fandom Review 2020
Jan. 4th, 2021 10:17 pmSo, 2020. What can you say? Well, nothing polite, that’s for sure.
As for everyone, the year panned out to be one great big steaming cowpat. With all the Covid chaos, fires, floods, plagues of locusts, Brexshit, and to top it all, the end of Supernatural.
I managed to write more fandom words this year than last year. Last year’s word count was quite low, because of the studying I was doing early in 2019 (27,003). I was aiming to be up to about the 30,000 this year, but inspiration has been a little hard to come by, and in the end I finished up on 27,690. So, yes, a bit disappointing, but more than last year so we’ll call it a win anyway!

Bobby's Favourite Picture
Jul. 26th, 2020 10:07 pmOriginially posted for the 'Fun and Sunshine Challenge' on spn_bigpretzel
Bobby wasn't sure what made him do it, but just on impulse, he took a photo of those two idjits.
They'd just wrapped up a hunt in the mid-west, and the sun was just going down after an oppressively hot midsummer day. The impala was parked on the shoulder of the highway in the middle of nowhere (which most of the mid-west was). It was just a moment, a fleeting moment in time, and Bobby happened to have his crappy old camera in his hand. The film in it was well past its best, and as a result the picture was a little out of focus, but somehow it worked.
After he developed it, Bobby sat and gazed at the picture for what seemed like forever. He knew that what he'd captured, was something intangible and precious; something he couldn't put into words. He knew that this picture showed what lay below all the bickering and fighting and pranking and general piss-taking that happened between the Winchesters.
Underneath the picture, he wrote 'brothers'
