Let’s hear it for the writers! Interview with fandom challenge creators, Kym and Stacey

Idling In The Impala: A Supernatural Podcast

Sandra and Kasey are kicking off the new year with a spotlight on Supernatural fandom members who developed challenges inspiring creativity within the community. Kym, known as deanwinchesterswitch on tumblr and WinchesterWytch on AO3, is the moderator for Jensen Acklesverse Bingo, which is in its second round. Stacey, known as PrincessMisery666 on tumblr and PrincessMisery86 on AO3, is the creator of Alphabet Quest, a new spin on prompt fills. Though writing challenges are not a new concept, both of these ladies have made theirs distinctive, fresh, and flexible. It’s all about bingos and quests on today’s episode, with two of the biggest cheerleaders in the fandom!
