The Explanation

I've had an idea rolling around in my head for awhile and I finally decided to do something about it.

Ever since I started the "Cinnamon Saga" I've found myself having odd thought sometimes, of little stories, one shots or vignettes of different scenes and things that I could imagine taking place in the lives of Dean and his family, but not enough to work into a full blown multi-chapter. But, I didn't want to put them all as single stories, because it would be hard on people who might want to follow them. So, I came up with this idea. My plan is to put them all here/ Think of this as a "book" of short stories, no more than two parts-.

I hope that this concept works, and I hope that you enjoy the stories, the ones that are here, and the ones that will be coming.
